A Day in the Life of a Ball of Playdoh
This is a day in the life of a ball of playdoh! It is a stop animation, similar to a cartoon. I needed to remember to keep the camera still, make small changes and tell a story at the same time. I had fun creating it.

Our Week in the Dream Team
Our learning in the first week back this Term, was centred around ANZAC Day.
We discovered many things about why we commemorate this special Day. We read many stories about our men and women who served for us, we wrote poems and stories, created art, and shared about our own family stories.
One of our highlights was Mystery Skyping a school, "somewhere in the World". We needed to work as a team, take turns asking thoughtful "Yes/No" questions, and be the first to discover the others' location. It turned out, the mystery school was from Sydney, Australia. Both classes enjoyed sharing songs and family stories relating to ANZAC Day.
Today we shared some of this learning with the rest of the School, during our Assembly item. Thank you very much to our parents and grandparents who were able to come along this morning. If you missed our Assembly, here are some snapshots of our fabulous kids.

Black Caps Assembly
During Term 1 our Year 6s worked hard to earn their Black Cap. This included carrying out their duties in the playground and around the school. It also meant that they needed to show that they were great role models for others at Mahora.
As Black Caps, they will be called upon to do different jobs of responsibility.
Congratulations to you all! We are very proud of you and are grateful for the positive contributions you make to our School. Piki Haere!
