Seesaw! Here's just some of the AMAZING learning going on in Ruma Wha at the moment!

Food for Thought

This week we were lucky enough to be visited by Nova. She gave us two 1 hour lessons about Health and Nutrition this week. We learnt a lot about sugar and in particular how much is in our drinks...yikes! We also learnt about the Healthy Food Pyramid :) Thanks so much Nova, you were great!

CHESS CHAMPIONS!

A group of Room 4 students have been making the most of the chess coaching from Miss A senior- (A.K.A my Mum!) Today I asked for volunteers to coach the little guys from Room 1 & 2. Cody, Ella, Meara and Sophie happily obliged, thank you!

HELPING HANDS!

Thanks to Eli, Casey, Teigan, Jasmine, Ashlee and Jordan for helping looking after the classrooms during the wet lunch time today :) I am never short of volunteers from Ruma Wha! Thank you!

kī-o-rahi

We've been playing a really neat game lately called kī-o-rahi. Complicated at first but we're really getting into it now...even I had a go! Kalel taught the class how to play this game, and turns out Alex used to play this on the beach in Gisborne! Great game :)

NEW STOOLS!

Big ups to Mrs Mudgway for sourcing us these amazing stools that we can use in our independent room! Yay we can now sit safely on poofs, instead of stools that had legs that would bend! THAAAAANK YOU :)

Just a little amazing collaborative art!

In Room 4 we have been learning that art and work in general can be collaborative, and that while the work of one person can be amazing, the work of many can be spectacular!
