Cross Country

Friday was a fantastic day for our school Cross Country.  After lunch everyone lined up in their house colours.  Lots of whanau came to see us run.  Mr Burt lined us up and then we were off!  Running as fast as we could.  We were all proud of our efforts.

 

Tongan Language Week – celebrations in Room 27

Room 27 had a wonderful week celebrating the culture and language of the Kingdom of Tonga.  We have learnt songs, made art, learnt some phrases, some of us wore their traditional dress and we enjoyed a wonderful performance by our Tongan Girls and Boys groups at Friday assembly.  We made O’tai to share.  Thanks Miss Timmi for all the help.

 

 

Myanmar Celebration Week

At PES this week we have been celebrating the language and culture of Myanmar.  This was a special week for Aye Myat Thu and Soi Ha.  They spent many playtimes practicing a traditional dance which they shared with the school at Friday assembly.  Evie Grace supported her friends by also performing.  Well done – we were so proud of you.

The Rainbow Fish

We love the story “The Rainbow Fish” .  It is a story about friendship and the importance of sharing with others.  When the Rainbow Fish shares he discovers he is much happier.  We have written stories and made our own Rainbow Fish.
