Kowhai Awards Week 6

Well done to these Superheroes in Room 15. Elijah is a hard worker with the most amazing manners. Leilanah takes lots of pride and care with her poems and publishing.

Kowhai Hub Poster Competition!!

Our kowhai hub had a competition to design the best kowhai poster to go in all the classrooms in kowhai hub.  Miss Morris helped us to create our kowhai art.  We watched and listened carefully to Miss Morris when she told us all about the kowhai flower.  She showed us how to draw a kowhai and then we had a go ourselves by sketching first.  Our art looked amazing when it was finished.  Mrs Potts and Mrs Hill thought they looked brilliant!!! Mrs  Hill chose some finalists to go to Mr Gifkins for the competition!!! Guess what? Leilanah's piece of kowhai art was chosen by Mr Gifkins as the WINNER!!!! Great little artist Leilanah!! Look out for her art in all the kowhai hub rooms.

Learning Phonics

Mrs Potts took these photos of us doing our phonics today! We love it! We do phonics everyday. We learn the letter names and sounds and practise writing the letters on our whiteboards. We were really good at the letter k today. Phonics will help us with our reading and writing.
