The next thing is to let you know that our inquiry focus for term two is Matariki

We will be investigating the science of day and night/ earth's rotation in space, our star the sun, the stars in the night sky and particularly the Matariki constellation.
Questions and wonderings will dictate how our inquiry will proceed.....if you have been asked a question that is burning for your child....let me know!

Do you have a toy or game that you don’t need anymore?

Is it in good condition?

Do you think someone else might enjoy playing with it?

Then come to the Kapanui Swap a Toy Party!

When: Thursday 23rd May, 1pm.

Viewing time: 8.00-9.00am in the School Hall.

Why: Because we don’t need to spend money on new toys when we can recycle what we have with others.

If you would like to be part of the party you must:

1. Fill out the permission slip from the newsletter and return to room 11 with your toys.

2. Have your toys checked by Miss Hakkens by Wednesday May 22nd.

* You will get a coupon which will be used to purchase a new toy of your choice from the stage.

Discovery rocket men!
