Reading


On Monday the weather was so nice that we did our reading outside on top grass. We talked about our stories, read our books in our reading groups and then did some buddy reading. Some of us looked very relaxed when we were reading!

PE


Today at PE we practised our catching, throwing, kicking and bouncing and then in pairs we made up a new game. We taught it to another pair and played the game. We had to use collaboration and team work, as well as a bit of resilience at times. It was fun.

Kandinsky Art


At transition last Friday, Scott and all the children who will be in Tautoru next year, created a piece of Kandinsky art. Everyone contributed and worked together collaboratively to create this beautiful mural.

Chris' Garden

Chris' Garden on PhotoPeach

Chris wanted to take us to his garden but it is a bit of a walk so he shared some photos with us today. We were fascinated with the lettuce growing out of the side of his house. He thought that he might have dropped seeds by accident.

Thank you for showing us around Mitchell. What a great leader!
