Learning conversations

That's right, it is that time of year.  First round of learning conversations were last night and it was such a joy to watch students share their learning with whānau. Can't wait to see more of you tonight!

Inspiring writers

Recently we watched this video by Dai Henwwood sharing his experience of writing and coming up with a story starter to inspire others.  Well, we love really cool story starters too, so we had a go at coming up with our own inspirations for other writers out there.

Sophie T
Dara and Akasha
Anna, Freya, Bella

Delroy, Neco and Sophie

Nina and Mariah
Hollie and Lucy  (black screen but clear audio)

If any of these inspire you to write, please share your stories.  We'd love to hear them.

Passions !!!!!!!

This year every Friday we do passions.

We choose one of the many subjects available or make our own, subjects include: Parkour, hip hop, comics, cooking, art and many more.

Some subjects have tutors e.g. Parkour has Jacob who comes and teaches parkour professionally and safely 

The art group have asked Helen to help out with art and are making a mural for the school. 

And Kelsi comes in and helps with cooking. 

Passions is a fun part of the week because we get to something we are passionate about.

Parkour

The best parkour on the land. This is Alex in parkour doing a flip onto the mat.
