Kia ora, Baverstock Oaks School students were challenged by their Specialist Performing Arts teacher, Miss Carter, to learn and record themselves singing Six60's song Pepeha, and to learn their own pepeha. All of this was done via the online learning platform zoom, cause Auckland is still in Level 4 lockdown. Some students really shone, and others bravely shared their work. Massive shout out to all the students from Year 1 - 6 who submitted their clips for this project and to Miss Carter for working out how to put it all together! Nga mihi nui

Kia ora Today at midday Miss Pottinger and her class participated in Te Wa Tuku Reo Maori on zoom. Nga mihi

Kia ora, Since about March, a few of my year 5 & 6 students and I have been working on kakahu for use in our school production. The pink and blue/brown ones were for lead characters and the other 4 were for a group of storytellers. The storyteller kakahu are in the house colours for our school and we are hoping that they will be used by our house leaders in the future. I had never made kakahu before but have found a very generous and supportive community on facebook called Korowai for Beginners, so have taught myself while teaching the students. We hope to name and bless the kakahu once we are allowed back at school in level 2. Nga mihi

Kia ora, This is me hikoi i te korero. I asked the students at school (via seesaw cause wer're still in lockdown) to sing along with Pepeha by Six60 and record themselves singing and giving their own pepeha. I gave them an example, but this my te wa tuku reo. Nga mihi
