Pattens in numbers, colours and shapes.

Here we are exploring, making conjectures and getting creative to solve today's problem.

New Zealand Sign Language Week

New Zealand Sign Language Week

The children have enjoyed learning some new words they can sign during New Zealand Sign Language Week. Some children chose to share information about themselves for their autobiography  using sign language.

Private vs Public Information - Think before you Share

Today in Cybersmart we have been learning what is alright to share online and what things we need to keep private. Check out our image below for what you should keep private and what could be shared publically.

Some things we learnt were

• Definitely, do not share your full name and phone number 
• Also, do not share the date of birth and address
• If you share your personal information other people might pretend to be you and change your stuff
• Do not share your password with anyone except your parents
• Once things are online they are there forever

The Tortoise and the Hare

On Thursday afternoon Paiaka Hub enjoyed the adventurous and interactive adaptation of Aesop's beloved fable The Tortoise and the Hare.  We spent the afternoon laughing and learning about diversity, kindness and how to be a real winner.
