Numeracy

Group 2 today spent their mornng working out the area and the perimeter of one of the Netball Courts.

They problem solved with only the 1m2 sheet they made last week, a pen, paper and the question sheet.

Can't wait to see what their results are.

Community Swimming Lessons

Room 8 have been very fortunate this term to recieve FREE swimming lessons once a week for half an hour from the Community Swim Programme at the Manurewa Pools. They have qualified and experienced instructors with them in the pool, so they are able to work with students better. Room 8 are looking forward to the new skills they will learn over the duration of eight weeks.
