The Juniors have been VERY busy! By Room 6a and 6b

This term, we have been doing a lot of learning and also having some fun. 
This is what we have been up to, by Room 6a and Room 6b:

• Some of our writers, have been doing great and awesome narratives. 
• We have been learning different languages, like Samoan, Romanian and Te Reo Maori.
• We know even more ways to say Hello, like in Filipino, Dutch, Spanish, Irish, French, Polish, Romanian, Indian, Australian, Mandarin and Japanese. 
• We had Malo, she is Phoenix, Lachie, Mollie and Sophie's Nan. She taught us Samoan and our song.
• Alexandra's Nanna taught us a Romanian song and dance. 
• We have really good goals for maths. "My goal was teen facts, it's easy now!" said Riley P. "My maths goal used to be counting in 5's and now I know it!" said Paloma. "I found the 2 x table really hard, then I got it," said Nisharn. "I used to not know how to count in 5's, but now I do," said Tessa.
• "We did Samoan art, we made a Siapo cloth," said Iosefo. "I know the colours of the Siapo Cloth," said Mefi, "they are brown and black."
• "Mrs Hainsworth came to RE one day and taught us a song called Welcome to the Family," said Liam.
• "We made birds from the Phillipines," said Matthew. "They were Sarimanok birds," said Yechiel.
• "We made Frangipani from Samoa," said Lucas. In Samoan, we call these Pua.

Our Cultural Performances and Art

Wow we have been busy this term! We have been learning about our own cultures, our family culture, our school cultures and where our families are from. We have also been learning about the different cultures in our class, through art and performance. 

We hope you all join us on Monday 15th September for our evening Cultural Performance! We will be sharing singing and dancing from several different cultures!

In the meantime, here is a sneak preview of the awesome art we have been creating:
