Maritime Museum Trip 12/4/21

 On Monday 12/4/21, the Senior School went on an expedition to Maritime Museum. 

The highlight for us all was the Waka experience. The Waka called Haunui is 1 of 7 that are part of the Te Toki Voyaging Trust. 

Te Toki is dedicated to revitalising and celebrating traditional Pacific voyaging culture. We heard stories about our Pacific Island ancestors who travelled the Pacific Ocean to settle and inhabit the islands that we know today as Hawai'i, Tonga, Samoan, Rapanui, Cook Islands and Aotearoa and many more.

This trip was amazing! Here are some photos from our day at Maritime.

Room 11 Chocolate Hedgehogs

 In Week 9, Room 11 learnt about Procedural/Instructional Writing. We studied the purpose of Instructional Writing, the structure of writing recipes and looked at including action verbs, linking words and precise vocabulary in our writing.

As an incentive, our class decided to make some chocolate hedgehog slices. We worked in groups, created our recipes and then on Wednesday, we spent the whole middle block making our slices.

Here are some photos of how our cooking day went.
