Hindi Oratory Competition

On Wednesday Neha (Year 6) took part in a Hindi Oratory Competition held at Papatoetoe High School. It was amazing to see the caliber of students presenting their speeches in Hindi. 

We are so proud of you Neha!

Duffy Show

Today we had Duffy show at school. It was so much fun. The presenters emphasised the importance of reading. Reading makes us smarter, helps us understand what's happening around us, and helps us to use our imaginative skills to understand the story better and bring characters to live.

Trip to Motat

On Tuesday Year 5 students went to MOTAT.

MOTAT stands for Museum of Transport and Technology Auckland

It was amazing to see ancient planes and trains.

Llamas learnt heaps about forces of flight. They are weight, light, thrust, and drag. We can't wait to unpack more and explore the forces need for flight.
