We had some fun going into the pigs and chickens home

and giving their home a good clean and making sure they are safe and happy in their environment.  We also had some buddy reading time it was so fun.  Thanks, Aroha 1.

Week 1- 2019

Welcome back to Rowandale School

for 2019

What a busy first week.  

Welcome back Assembly

Whakapono's first STEAM project 

(Science, Technology, engineering and mathmatics) 

The children were given a leaf and asked why is this leaf brown and leaves on the trees are green

The children stated the veins in the leaves helped nurture the leaf and feed it nutrients to help it grow.   The children drew lines on the veins to show 

Here are the children learning their first DMIC question.  This 

is a long road.  But, it's going to be awesome to see our student using enriched mathematical language.  

Lastly to help build relationships in our class we participated in a team building activity.
