Kōwhai News Term 3 Week 4

Kia ora e te whanau, 

How lovely has it been to see the sunshine these last few days! We hope you've had the opportunity to enjoy the sunshine and warmer weather these last few days. 

Maths Week 

This week our tamariki have been enjoyed a wide range of maths challenges to celebrate International Maths Week 2024. The children have been having lots of fun working together to solve these challenges. The theme this year is Playing with Maths, also encouraging creativity with many children coming up with a maths joke or two. Perhaps they are sharing these at home with you too!

Parents Maths Evening

There is an opportunity to attend a range of hands-on workshops which will help you to extend or support your child in maths. This will be held on Thursday 29th August. We would love to see you come and join in the maths fun at our kura!


Willowbank 

Later on this Term 3, the Kōwhai hub are planning to travel to Willowbank for a school visit. We are planning to travel by bus on Friday 20th September to spend the day learning about all of the amazing animals there. We are need of parent help for this visit so if you are able to help out on the day, please email your child's homegroup teacher. Your support would be greatly appreciated and can go a long way towards helping to make this a successful for all our akonga. 


Calendar Art 

The children have been very busy working on completing their Calendar Art. The theme for this year is Zentagle Name Art. They are very close to completing these and are all so very proud of their efforts. Order forms will be made available very soon. This is a great fundraiser for PTA so it would be great if you could support this. Thanking you in advance.
