Kite Art



After we flew our kites on the beach we created some kite art and wrote poems about our experience...


Did you ever by Edward
Did you ever go kite flying at Worser Bay Beach
People screaming
Kites crash landing
People running
Kites swooping
People tugging
Kites pulling
People shouting
Kites falling
People chatting
Kites flying

Celebrating Matariki



We had a great time celebrating Matariki by flying our kites on the beach with our families.

Let's Go Fly A Kite



We have made our own kites to fly. We have been designing kites that have members of our family on them. We went outside to see how they fly...

Our Tautoru Kite...


See you tomorrow!


Kite making

In preparation for our kite flying celebration for Matariki we have been making kites in class. We have attempted a hexagonal box kite and also a kite based on traditional Maori designs. See you on Friday!

We have lots of things to say !!

In Tautoru,  goal setting and reflection are key aspects of our programme.   We are always encouraging students to set personal writing goal...
