Working with Beebot

Today Carter and Harry showed us how to work with Beebot.

We used Beebot and told him to go to a letter. We had to press a button for him to walk. We had to think very carefully. Working with Beebot helped us with our maths, because we are learning about position and orientation.

Matariki Day celebration

Our school celebrated Matariki with a fun and exciting day. In our 7 tuakana-teina groups we did art activities, cooking and weaving. Room 4 were very fortunate to have two of our parents helping us with our flax weaving. Thank you Becs and Danelle, we have learned so much from you!
After lunch we played some games organised by our dynamo leaders.
