Writing Reasons

With Mrs Raj, learners in Potu Ono enjoyed the writing task today.
Using the writing prompts was really engaging for the learners. The boys in particular loved the task and started to write down their thoughts and reasons for selecting one or the other option from the writing prompts.

Here are some examples of the mahi the students did.

School Leaders’ trip to Wellington

School leaders from Poto Ono are going on a trip to Wellington to learn more about leadership, rights and responsibilities, and good citizenship.

Thanks to the School Board and our Principal Christina Patea, the students will be flying to Wellington, visiting Te Papa Museum, go on a waka, visit Parliament and learn how to be great leaders. Have fun, school leaders!

 

Digital Footprint

Today in Potu Ono Mrs Raj took a lesson on “How big is our digital footprint?” and taught the students the importance about what they should share and what they shouldn’t share online. They also learnt how to take a screenshot of their work and share their work on their individual blogs.

The activity was:
