Some of us found some things really tricky but we tried really hard to be resilient and not give up. We are all going to improve so much this term.

Week 1 - Swimming!
Today was Scott Class's first swimming session. It was great to see everyone showing off the skills they remembered from last year!
Some of us found some things really tricky but we tried really hard to be resilient and not give up. We are all going to improve so much this term.

Week 1 - Healthy Habits
This week we have been learning about different ways we can help to keep ourselves healthy. On Friday we had Grace our Public Health Nurse visit and remind us of how to wash our hands properly and how to blow our noses. Did you know you should blow your nose at least 5 times a day!
Grace had special germ lotion that we put on our hands and then looked at under a black-light to see where the germs like to hide. Then we practised washing our hands and had another look to check that we had got rid of all the germs.
We also did some research of our own into healthy habits and then shared these. Here are some photos of us sharing our learning.

Are you a leapling?
Today is the 29th of February, did you know we only have the 29th of February every four years!
For the children in Scott class this is only the third time they have experienced had the 29th of Feb.
Today we did watched a youtube clip which explains why leap years occur, then we wrote our own explanations.
Here is one that was a collaborative effort from Tai, Osana, Manahal, Alaskah and Sami.
What is a leap year? We discovered that a leap year is a year that has 366 days. A normal year has 365.25 days, but we can’t have a day that is only six hours (or .25 of a day) long! So we have a thing called a Leap Year. Leap years occur every four years. They occur because we have to catch up the extra six hours per year. Because it takes 365 days to orbits the sun.Six hours each year for four years adds up to 24 hours which is the same as one day. So in a leap year we have an extra day. It is the 29th of February. A Leapling is someone who was born on the 29th of February. They only have their birthday every four years.

Te Reo Māori Conversation
WALT have a conversation in te reo Māori.
In Flox Class we have been learning to have a conversation in Maori. We used our conversations to create movies. Our movies are set around Hay Park School. Have a look and see if you can understand Peeana and Manahal's conversation.
We are learning to use te reo Maori. We are still learning to pronounce some of the words in our conversations. Please give us some tips if you have any!
Ka kite ano!
