Garden to Table Term 3

We have had another busy term in the garden and kitchen.
Fabulous food has been created by the Year 3s and 4s with our great helpers in the kitchen, thanks so much Aimee and Bronwyn.  In the garden Sarah has been working hard with the help of Lee-ann.  Today they are harvesting Kawakawa leaves to use in the making of balm.  Our bees wax wraps were finished last week with the help of Gill.  Here are a few photos of the very productive children learning lots through our fantastic Garden to Table programme.  Thanks again to the few parent/grandparent helpers who have made our learning possible. We warmly welcome any helpers available any time between 8.30 and 12 on Fridays.

Spring Holiday Blogging

This is the Ohaeawai School's Spring Blogging Challenge. Select activities to complete over the holidays. You can upload to your own blog, email them to carmenc@ohaeawaiprimary.co.nz or alicia @ohaeawaiprimary.co.nz or bring them in next term to show us.

Remember that as we are posting directly to a wider audience, it is important to not only post photos and ideas but to also add a description of what you are posting.  Remember to label it Spring Blogging.

Working with Waitangi educators

Team Awa Year 4's have been working with the educators from Waitangi. They came to our school on the 15th of August and did some great unplugged activities and then the children used their devices to explore Scratch and used Paint 3D to create cool backgrounds.

On Tuesday 3rd September the Year 4's travelled to Waitangi to spend the day learning with the educators. They again did some great unplugged coding activities. They also worked on their Scratch projects and added in the sprites they made using green screen at school.
