Trip to Motat

Room 26 had a wonderful time at Motat last week developing our learning about Inventors and Inventions.  Thank you to all the parents who gave their time to make this trip a wonderful success.  


 Our Motat Trip

On Friday morning we went to Motat on the bus.  First my team went to the old Pump House.  Then we went to the purple building where there were video games.  We got to make a 3D robot.  I made a saw box then I saw a 3D printer.  After that we went to the Discovery Room and we saw how old things changed.  by Jackson

On a great sunny morning my class hopped on the big school bus tto go to Motat.  When we got there, me, Euan and Jason went to the sun dial.  Then we went to the black smith house.  After that we went on the tram.  That was best because it was cool. by Jesse

Dear Dad,

Thank you for taking a break to go to Motat with me, Aria, Keira and Elyssa.  We loved the church and the old fashioned houses because they looked real.

Love from Emmeline

Totara Junior School Assembly  Whanau Totara ran the Junior School Assembly on Monday and what a show it was!!  Well done to all the children you did a fantastic job!!  I felt so proud  as the children sang and danced their hearts out as they performed the Maori action song 'Korero'.  Special recognition needs to go to Charlie for reciting his Pepeha, and  Elyssa, Hunter and Ibrahim represented our class with speaking roles.    The children had fun designing their own Maori headbands and wore them with pride.  The song related to our Term 4 Inquiry topic 'Two Worlds Meet'.

Inventors Day It was wonderful to have so many family members come along to our Inventors Day on Wednesday 5th July.  Everybody had fun inventing crazy glasses out of pipe cleaners and even some of the parents chose to wear these fashion accessories. The children enjoyed sharing the cars, planes and propellor boats they made over the term. The whole school was buzzing all morning with inventing happenings. What a great way to end an inquiry topic. Following are some photos from Room 26.  Check out Uthesh and Ibrahim's great costumes! Check out the cool cars the children made with Jaime earlier in the term.
