"Love to Read" Day in Waipuna

The children in Waipuna thoroughly enjoyed being read to by some fantastic parents who popped in this morning for "Love to Read" Day. Thanks for joining us!!

Bruised and Beautiful Apples

Today the Waipuna Team talked about how words can hurt. We said nice compliments to an apple and then unkind words to another. When we cut into the apples we saw that while on the outside the apples looked the same on the inside the bruises showed. We are learning how important it is to think about what we say!

We might have a school yard full of wizards, caterpillars, fairies, ogres, pigs, pugs, grannies and more next Friday!

What will you come as? Dress up as your favourite book character on Friday 25th May. There will be a grand parade after the roll is taken. There will be prizes!

Paper Chains...

For "Bullying Free NZ week" the Waipuna children watched a video called "Oat the Goat". Then we wrote our ideas on a piece of paper for how we can be kind to others. We will piece these together to be a "Chain of Kindness". We are learning how important our words and actions are!

Waipuna Looking Good on Pink Shirt Day!

To kick off Bullying Free NZ week we wore pink shirts (or anything pink to show our support) on Monday. This year’s theme, Let’s Talk About It!, aims to encourage conversations between children and young people and the adults around them, and to get the whole community talking about the issue. We will be doing some fun activities this week to support this.
