Welcome to Room 21
Embedded Files
Welcome back to Term 1 for 2025. I hope all our families, new and old have had an enjoyable break spending time in the sun, with family and friends and enjoy some relaxation!
This term is going to be a very busy term getting to know our new class, swimming, Tech Arts, Thursday rotation here at school, leadership roles announced, sports camp applications due and Professional Development for teachers learning about new curriculum approaches.
Literacy Learning
This term in writing we will be looking at vocabulary development and writing a strong sentence. We will do this using quick writes, recounts and poetry.
During reading we will explore appropriate levelled journal stories and work on our deeper understanding of these.
We will also incorporate some spelling, handwriting and oral language in our Literacy programme.
Thursday Learning at School
When children are not at Tech Arts on Thursday they rotate around each of the five classes at school.
Throughout the course of the year they will spend a 7 week block with each teacher.
Mr Louden - Science
Mr Trafford - Speechcraft (7's) and Debating (8's)
Mrs Hoskin - Spanish
Mr Hunia - Ukulele (7's) and Drums (8's)

Tech Arts
In Year 7 and 8 children travel to Te Au O Tamatea each Thursday for Tech Arts. Throughout the year they have a term at Food Tech, Art, Hard Materials and Innovations.
Year 8's need to be at school at 8.30am on a Thursday morning to take the bus down to Tech.
