NZ Get Writing

This morning we unpacked our NZ get writing box with Mrs Clark.  We were very excited to see what it contained!!  We have found out that we are writing to Room 23 at Papatoetoe South School.  We have done a little bot of research and discovered that they are very similar to us in some way i.e they have a Kapa Haka and their uniform looks a bit like ours.  But they are different to us too, they don't have Year 7 and 8's at their school.  We can't wait to receive their postcards and we are excited to get going with ours.  


Arthurs Pass Camp 2018

At the beginning of this week Mamaku 1 spent a fantastic 3 days in the Alpine environment of Arthurs Pass.  We swum in Lake Brunner, walked the Devils Punchbowl Track, experienced river crossing, walked the Arthurs Pass walkway, completed a Search and Rescue mission to find 'Brian', walked the sensory trail through the forest, orientated out way through the village to complete a challenge.  We had a fantastic time and have made some fantastic memories to share with you!
