Week Three of Learning in the Paiaka Hub

Wow what a great week of learning we have had in the Paiaka hub. Tuesday started off with some lunchtime Wheel fun, run by the Year 7's. The kids who participated had a great time. 








One of our goals for reading is to participate in 20 minutes of silent reading. We tested this out on Wednesday. Look at the level of focus on their faces, go team!







In PBL we have been looking at how we can ensure electricity is part of our future? For the first three weeks children have been around 4 rotations focusing on solar, hydro, electric currents and wind. Check out some of the kids learning below. They have designed solar powered cars, made wind turbines, operated electric circuits and looked closely at a hydro dam. 










As part of our learning program on Friday, the children take part in a Friday rotation. The Year 3's take part in ICT with Miss Smith-Palmer and art with Mrs Roach. The Year 4's complete Cyber Smart with Miss Lover and Mark and art with Miss Gill. Check out their awesome work below.
