Kia ora,
This week we welcome Brax, Holly, Kaia, Maya, Alexander and Malachi. Welcome to Kōwhai, we are so pleased to have you here. Mr Smith We have been very lucky to have Mr Smith from the Canterbury University of Education working in Kōwhai for the past two weeks. He is learning to be a teacher and has spent his time observing how learning happens in Kōwhai. Mr Smith will be returning to Kōwhai later on in the year to work with some of our children. Mrs Herring Until the end of the term Mrs Herring is helping Mrs Jackson and Ms Riley with their responsibilities as the second Deputy Principal. This will mean that she is out of the classroom in the afternoons. For next week we have Mrs Bowen in for her and in the final week we have Mrs Pengelly. We are hoping to see lots of special extra things for Kōwhai now that we have friends in high places!! School Disco It was great to see so many of the Kōwhai children at the disco having a great time and having a dance with some of the Kōwhai teachers! Be Safe Inquiry We have been so busy learning about how to keep ourselves safe. We have been looking at ways to keep safe at school and all around us. During the week we were lucky to have Constable Rick come in and talk to us about crossing the road safely. He reminded us to use the school crossing when it is operating and when we cross any road to cross with an adult and to look both ways to make sure it is clear before crossing. Today we were lucky enough to visit the Fire Station!! We learnt what to do if there is a fire at our house. Get down, get low, get out and meet in a safe spot. We also talked about the importance of knowing our address if we need to ring for help. At home you might like to decide on a safe spot together and talk about your address. Below we have included some photos of some future fire fighters. If you would like to sing along with our keen firefighters follow the link below! #sorrynotsorry www.youtube.com/watch?v=emv-Yn6g1r4 Wood We have a contact near Wigram that supplies us with wood for our woodwork table. If you think you might be passing by there then come and see us for the address and you could pick up some for us. You will just need a .box to collect it in. Thanks Not long to go until holidays!!
