Sun Smart

Today we were learning about being sun smart in writing.

We tried using the dress up s to keep us safe.

We need to wear sun glasses, hats and long sleeves.

Writing about our 'children'

Most of us remembered to bring our gingerbread children back to school today... Ashikka and Zoe even spent time last night decorating their carry cases and Flynn gave his person a healthy dinner of broccoli!

Tonight we're all going home with them and will be thinking about what we can do to help keep them safe and healthy.  Try to get some pictures of you looking after your 'children' if you can, LH1!

Keeping our 'Children' Safe!

Today we started a new concept writing focus.

Some of our learners decorated biscuits to turn them into our children... we then made carry bags and containers for them to go home in.  Over the next few days we're going to be taking our children with us and doing our best to keep them safe.  I wonder what they might get up to!

Feel free to decorate them at home and take photos of what they do after and before school - be sure to keep them safe.

Is it ok to leave your child at home by themselves?

Is it ok to leave them out in the yucky weather?

Film Festival

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Next Wednesday 13 November the whole school is going to Hoyts Sylvia Park to watch the successful videos which were entered in the Manaiakalani film festival. There will be some videos screened which were made by Stonefields learners and some videos made by children at other schools in the Manaiakalani cluster.

To get seated on time we need to be on the bus at 9am. Please ensure your child is at school at 8.30am on Wednesday 13 November so that we can make this happen. If your child arrives at school after 9am on Wednesday they will unfortunately not be able to attend the film festival.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Kind regards, Hub 1 Teachers
