2011 is finally here! Welcome to all the new children and families in Room 16. This is the first post on our new blogsite. I can't wait to see all of the exciting learning that you will be able to share on this blog throughout the year. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone and finding out about your interests and abilities.
What's planned for Term 1:
This term our major inquiry focus across the school will be looking at our own and our classmates identities. We will begin by 
investigating our selves and thinking about our abilities, likes, dislikes, strengths and areas that we find difficult. We will then develop some personal goals to direct our learning for the term. Our unit will also involve delving into what makes an effective class community. This will involve building definitions of a good classmate and friend. Our team building will coincide with an exciting week o
f Outdoor Education activities that will develop and encourage teamwork. Another outcome from our unit will be to also investigate our national identity through looking at New Zealand Geography and place names.
Happy Holidays Everyone
