Oat the Goat


Oat the Goat

This is an online story we watched in class today to help us learn what to do when we see someone being picked on or bullied. It was a great read and the children really enjoyed. They asked for it to be shared to the class blog so they can show their family.

Stingray Art


We have been looking into Maori Myths and Legends. One of the myths we learnt about was Maui and the Giant Fish. This is about how Maui caught a giant stingray while fishing and when he pulled it up it turned into the North Island of New Zealand.
