LOCAL, GLOBAL AND CONNECTED

KIKI KIWI READY TO GO TO AUSTRALIA
ROOM 13 MEET ULURU
As part of our Inquiry topic for Term 2, Room 13 have made a connection with a year 1 / 2 class from Coromandel Valley Primary School in Australia. We have sent them our friend Kiki Kiwi and are going to follow his Australian adventures through Miss S’s class blog. They have sent us their friend called Uluru and we will take him on some adventures with us. Miss S’s class can look at our blog to see what we are up to. We can leave each other comments. We are pleased we have made this connection and look forward to seeing what Kiki Kiwi is up to!

MATARIKI




We are very lucky at Nelson Central School to be involved on so many wonderful opportunities. On June 5 we celebrated Matariki. The Kahikatea syndicate and Room 15 got together to have shared kai at lunchtime. It was great to spend time together.

Rooms 15 and 16 also invited our classes in to share some cultural experiences with us. They taught us about string games, harakeke, poi and rakau. Thanks guys - YOU ROCK!

WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY




World Environment Day was on June 5th. Room 13 made some wonderful posters to get a message across to the community :
KICK THE CARBON HABIT!
All of Nelson Central School put their posters on the fences around the school so people could read our messages as they walked past. They looked fantastic!
