This term has been off to a busy start so far. We have had
lots of fun learning experiences here at Yendarra School such as;
●
wharekai
●
swimming lessons
●
Fiafia practices
It is our class goal to come to school everyday and in the
correct school uniform so that we can all make the most of these wonderful
learning experiences.
Wharekai
We LOVE going to the wharekai and making new and
exciting things, most of which are harvested from our amazing garden.
Here is a recipe of what you could make at home.
Yummy!

Did you know, that in 2016
there was 78 preventable drownings in New Zealand?
We are so lucky to live in
a country where we are surrounded by oceans, lakes and rivers. So that we can
enjoy our summer and maybe even visit the Otara Pools in the holidays, Room 11
have been learning to swim!
“Freestyle is my favourite
because I can go fast”
“It is tricky turning to
breath. Your head needs to rest on your arm”
“Swimming is good fitness
for us!”
