I love Tautoro School.

At Tautoro School

                                           Why I love Tautoro School

I think Tautoro School is incredible because our class gets to grow plants with Whaea Hera. In Room 3 we to read  to Whaea Hilary and Mrs Graham.

At Tautoro School we have chomebooks to help us with our learning. We use the waka hoe to help us to achieve our best learning and our best behaviour.

In Room 3 we work hard to achieve our learning goals. We write stories so we can get better at it.

Every Thursday we have dance with Whaea Dorothy. At the end of the  term we have to dance in front of other people, like our families and friends.

Also we get to have sport with Matua Matt. We learn skills to play sport like Rippa rugby, basketball, multi-sports, and hockey.

So that’s why Tautoro School is the best in the world.

I am learning to give and follow instructions in Te Reo Maori.

Recount Writing: At my nana's and papa's wedding.

                     At my papas and nanas wedding.

On Saturday morning my dad and mum were going to my dad’s friends fight in Auckland. So my nana had to look after us while my mum and dad were gone with my older sister and older brother. First I went to have breakfast because everyone else had breakfast. After that my nana came over to pick us up to go to the wedding in Taheke. My dad had to drop us off half way there because it was nearly time for them to go. Then we were nearly to the marae. It was as hot as fire flames. So my nan went fast as a racing car. When were finish it was a long time to wait because it was at 11.30pm. While we were waiting it was even  hotter than before. Later on the wedding started. It took a long time but when every mihi finished  we sang songs. 2  of them were Tautoro songs like He honore and Te Pou. When the wedding was finished we had a BBQ for lunch. Finally we went home.

What a brilliant day at my papa’s and nana’s wedding.

Seeds to feed

Seed to feed  

When we started growing seeds I felt thrilled because I thought that we couldent grow plants from seeds. But then when we were growing and caring for the plants for 9 weeks.

I learnt that plants need air, soil, water, the right temprture and nutrins to grow healthy.

We have grown plants for our school market day. We are selling lot of plants like tomatos, sweetcorn, courgettes, squash, purple tansy, sun flowers, and silver beet.

If we sell all of our plants we will make like $200 or more for our class.  That is so exciting because our seeds cost us nothing.  We will be making a BIG profit.
