Swimming

Wow! We have had so much fun in swimming this term! The Greater Auckland Aquatic Action Plan (GAAAP) is a collaborative project that coordinates professionally delivered swimming lessons to primary school children in the greater Auckland region, ensuring the development of fundamental swimming and water safety skills. We have been so fortunate to have had these lessons here at Owairaka. Room 25 swimmers have all improved significantly and we feel a lot more confident in the water!

Hooray for Green Day!

On Friday 6th March we had our first Green Day for 2015! Enjoy these photos of Room 25 being environmentally active and getting into the Green Day Spirit! A big congratulations to Essa who was awarded a certificate for thinking of and acting on great ideas to care for our beautiful world - Keep up the fantastic work Essa and Room 25!

An exciting learning opportunity!

Room 25 was fortunate enough to spend some of our learning time with three Japanese Students.  We rotated around different activities - Origami, cherry tree finger painting and an introduction to Japanese language.  Big 'arigato' to Leila and her family for organising this exciting opportunity for us!
