Tag Game Rules

Tag games have been getting rough and people are getting hurt by other people pushing them over.
In Tautoru, we have made some tag rules to solve the problems, just like superheroes. Here they are:

  • Talk about the rules before the game so that everyone agrees the same rules.
  • Use gentle hands at all times.    
  • Keep yourself safe. Be careful of slippery wood and grass. Be careful when you are up high.
  • If someone thinks they tagged you but you think they did, then do paper scissors rock or eeny meeny miny mo.  
  • If you don’t want to play, use your words. Walk away and play with another friend that you know.
  • Have fun!

Bar graphs

In maths we have been using tally charts to survey people about their favourite things.

We have then taken that information and created bar graphs to present the information.

Bins at the fair: message by Edward

The fair is happening this Sunday (13th November 2016) and we are all very excited.

At the fair there will be 4 types of bins: paper and hard plastic recycling, compost, soft plastic and landfill rubbish  bins in two places in the school. Make sure that you put your rubbish in the correct bins.

Lolly wrappers are made of soft plastic do not put them in the landfill bin, then which bin will you put it in?

The soft plastic bin!
PFP bags… Remember to bring your pfp bags to the fair!!

Please tell other people about the bins.
