Lest we forget! ANZAC day.

The acronym ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. 

Andee has created a wonderful ANZAC display for our tamariki to look at and learn from. Ask Andee questions about the display, as it is about a member of her whānau. Tēnā koe, Andee for sharing this with us. Come along and check it out. Take this opportunity to learn more about ANZAC day, and the history of it.  Share what you know in a comment below. 

 


You may be wondering why we have chosen to do this post now. Well because we will be on holiday during this time. We (the library team) thought let's provide the opportunity for our tamariki to learn more about ANZAC day, so that they may develop a greater understanding and appreciation of this public holiday.
 
 

Here is a read aloud story you can watch called 'Anzac Ted'


Here is another Anzac story called 'My Grandad Marches on Anzac Day'

Ako , hanga and tohatoha!

At our kura, we strive to Ako (learn), hanga (create) and tohatoha (share) our mahi. 
Come to the Whare Mātauranga to see this in action. Check out the wonderful mahi on display, each ruma has a chance to display what they have learnt about.
