Indian Day
Yesterday we had a very exciting Indian theme day at school. The children were split into 8 groups and rotated throughout the school experiencing a range of Indian themes; henna art work, Bollywood dancing, cooking a chapati and designing a sari out of newspaper (this replaced the planned cricket and hockey when the rain arrived). As an extra we even arranged for our very own Te Horo ‘monsoon’ which pelted the school throughout the day! It was great to expose the students to a range of activities which catered to all learning styles, ages and abilities. Many of the children and staff were dressed in their finest Indian clothes and thoroughly enjoyed the day. We began by assembling in the school hall and were read a story by the Waikanae Children’s Librarian, Michelle who also showed the children how to put on a sari. It was a brilliant blue and involved a lot of wrapping, twisting and draping to ensure the 9 meters of cloth fitted correctly! Thank you to the many parent helpers who assisted with the groups (this was a great help) and to the teachers.
Indian Introduction
With the upcoming Commonwealth games being held in India, we thought it would be fitting for the whole school to learn about this amazing country. To 'capture' the children's interest the staff wore traditional dress, decorated the hall and served the children rice, dahl and naan bread. Everyone had a wonderful time.
Junior Disco
Room 1, 2 and 3 had their disco on Wednesday 9th June. The theme was futuristic. A great time was had by everyone, Great costumes, dancing and games. Thank you to the parent organising team.
