School Experts - Mr and Mrs Mills

Today room 5 had Mr and Mrs Mills visit as to talk about what Kaiwaka school was like when they attended. Not only are they past pupils of Kaiwaka School but their grandchildren attend the school. We loved seeing the old photos and hearing about the school when it was only two classrooms and you rode horses to school.

Speeches

The whole of Kaiwaka School are writing and presenting speeches at the moment. We have the finals on Friday at 10:30 if you want to come and listen. The year 6 finalists are Jader, Holly and Holly. The year 5 finalists are Jade, Blossom and Mason.

Mathex

This year Kaiwaka School entered the interschool Mathex competition. Jader, Jade, Portia and Mason represented our school. They were awesome!

Trip to the Matakohe Kauri Museum

Last Thursday the senior school went on a trip to our local museum. This was part of our study on school rules. We learnt a lotfrom Miss Strick in the school room. We can now write on slates and have had the strap.

1970's School Day

Last week Room 5 dressed up as though they were in the seventys. We sen our desks up like the seventys and spent the day learning like they did back then. We also had a 1911 school day and a 2050 school day. Lots of fun! We are currently learning about school rules so will soon be comparing the rules form the different times.

The Big Tree is Down!

Our big tree was cut down on Friday. It was dying and needed it be because it was unsafe but we were still sad.
