The Circus came to town last Tuesday with a spectacular performance by Kiwi Students. We had amazing acts from Ringmasters, Clowns, Magicians, Strongmen, Musicians, Animals and Dancers. We are very proud of our Kiwi learners, they chose their own part of the circus role and created their own routines. Thank you to all our visitors who came to enjoy the show!
We have been learning about the Coatesville Competency 'Respect'. One way to show respect is by supporting our friends. We sung a song called 'You Can Count On Me' at our Kiwi team assembly. We then sang the 'Matariki Macarena' in celebration of Maori New Year Matariki!
This term Rooms 9 and 10 have been looking into 'Sustainability'. Alongside our learning we have been collecting recycled materials to make 'Junk Art Robots'. We were really impressed with the students' creativity and imagination in creating their own very unique robots. Well done Room 9 and 10! This week Room 7 was on Team Assembly! They did an incredible job! They shared their learning about Matariki, Recycling, Penguins and shared some action songs that everyone joined in with! Well done Room 7!
Sustainability is our context for Term 2 and Room 9 and Room 10 have been busy designing robots which will be created from recycled 'junk'. These pictures are of us painting our back grounds with which we will use to build and display our robot on. We loved mixing the paint on our pictures and can't wait to get stuck into building our robots! The Kiwi Team have had an amazing time this week working to keep Coatesville School Bully Free. Each afternoon we got to head to a different teacher in the Kiwi Team where we learnt about ways to spread kindness. Have a look at some of our pictures taken this week! Today it was Room 9's turn to share at Kiwi Team Assembly. We chose to share our favourite things about using Seesaw. We like using seesaw to practice our literacy, maths and maori. It's good for our learning.
Since it was NZ sign language week we wanted to teach Kiwi team a song with sign language. We did such a great job!! As some of you may know Levi is travelling the world with his family for the next few months. It has been fun checking in and seeing all the awesome adventures he is having. At the end of last term we wrote to him and he has now replied. Click here to see our reply!!
It was Room 7's and Room 8's turn to run Team Assembly! They did an amazing job! They sung a song about "Filling Buckets" and the different ways we can do that (thanks for writing such an awesome song Mrs Behague!) and also had everyone "moving and grooving" with lots of cool action songs! You were all AWESOME!!! We are very proud of you!
