Spead the Word

This week we have been learning about the importance of spreading the word and raising the awareness of conservation.

Our teina have done a great job to create different items to help share their message. Their creations range from heater Jibbitz to remind people to turn off the heater when they leave the room to washing mashing magnets to remind people to hang out their washing instead of using the dryer.

Check out some of our creations below.

 

Recycling crafts

This week our ākonga got creative to re-purpose plastic bottles to make their own piggy banks. There are many ways to reuse our plastic waste and is a great way to put the 3R’s into action while having lots of fun.

Dioramas Galore

We have been learning all about how to be kaitiaki in our homes by conserving our natural resources.

As a create task, tamariki are making dioramas to show what they are going to be doing with their whānau. Our dioramas needed to be made with resources we could find around the kura. e.g old paper, paints that were almost all gone, popsicle sticks from another art project, we even found some leftover turf that we turned into grass for our parks.

On Friday we were super excited to share our creating with some of our tuākana and have them help us. Check out what they got up to.
