Week 6

In Kahikatea this term we are focusing on the Key Competency of 
Relating to Others.  This week we talked about negotiating.  Sally put us into groups of three and gave us three mini chocolate bars each.  We had to negotiate together and decide how we would divide them up.  Some of us chose to just have one bar each, whilst some of us decided to split them into halves  and thirds.  We learnt that it is best to be like a Co-operative Owl who negotiates, problem solves and likes a win:win situation.

We also had our second week of sports with Jane from 'No Child left Inside'.  We are so lucky to be able to take part in this free programme as Jane is an expert at teaching P.E.  Here you can see us practicing our throwing whilst playing a game trying to knock the swiss ball out of the square.

We were also lucky enough to have a visit from Jane Morrison.  She is involved with the Purple Cake Fundraising and she gave us an update on a school in Kenya where a lot of the money raised from Purple Cake Day was put towards. We will celebrate Purple Cake Day again on Friday March 20th.
