Our team vision is GROWING INDEPENDENCE.
We are a stepping stone, bridging the gap between the Junior and Senior schools. We believe in developing and encouraging independent learning. We have set expectations – individually, as a class, as a team and in regards to homework, at home.
This 2011 year, our school are Celebrating Diversity, so our topic for Term 1 is “Being Me: My Place in the World”. We are learning about our family backgrounds and cultures in relation to the communities we live in, to uncover our sense of belonging. In relation to this, we have been making cushions bearing our initials (Applique), personalised pencil holders and learning about healthy eating for a healthy lifestyle in Poutama.
Check out our learning experiences!
