How To Make a Harakeke Flower

Making Putiputi as a Thank you

Room Three decided to acknowledge the parents who helped us on our Marae visit by making a Putiputi (harakeke flowers). The children also wrote messages to our parents and grandparents to show their appreciation.

Hip Hop Leaves

Zooming and speeding,

Twirling and swirling, 
Swooping and looping,
Tumbling and pouncing,
Jumping and bouncing,
Racing and rolling,
Dancing and spinning,
Flying and flapping, 
Crashing and bumping,
Blowing and floating,
Sitting in a big pile.
