Term 4 Week 2

Kia ora

A couple of things to remember for next week:

Kahukura Cluster Celebration Picnic information below - 


  • Library day is Tuesday after lunch for everyone in Year 2, feel free to bring your books along on Monday and Tuesday to be returned.
  • Athletics Practices started this week and will be happening every week on Thursday for all of Timatanga until week 7.
  • Term 4 is a compulsory term for children to wear hats, please ensure your child is bringing their hat every day, especially as we are outside for Sportstart and athletics practice. 

This term, as you maybe aware, Timatanga is exploring Myths and Legends. We started this Inquiry by watching Moana and have now started making links about Moana and Aotearoa's Myths and Legends. 

Here are some pictures of what is starting to show up on our learning wall:






Feel free to come and have a look at it as it keeps growing and get your child to talk to you about what is on it!

Welcome to Term 4!

Welcome to Term 4!

- Hats -

Thank you to everyone who has sent their child to school with a hat this week! In term 4 it is compulsory for students to wear hats when they are outside.

- Touch Team Opportunity -

A Prebbleton Yr 2 and 3 touch rugby team are desperate for some Year 2 or 3 girls to join their touch rugby team. Which plays in Prebbleton on Thursdays usually about 4pm. If any Yr 2 / 3 girls are interested, please let Nicky Reynolds know ASAP her email is: nicky.reynolds@thorrington.ac.nz

- Walking Wednesday -

It was wonderful to see all the people travelling to school by bikes, scooter, skateboard and walking. I wonder how many we will get next week?

Here are some photos of it in action:






Year 1 would like you to watch this and then join them on Wednesdays this term.
