 Kia ora team! 

Term 2 has been hectic. Between sickness, sports and other school activities, we have been able to do some amazing learning. 

We have just started our new DMIC maths topic which is statistics. We have been learning about the different types of graphs and how to analyse and sort out data sets. 

For literacy, we have been focusing on persuasive texts. We read and dissected news articles that were rather persuasive and wrote responses. 

We have working on writing with topics such as "should school uniforms be compulsory". 

What we have discovered is that our class is very opinionated and ready to debate and persuade people at any time! 

We had a wonderful time celebrating Matariki here at school. We did some learning around Matariki and most of us attended our annual school 'Matatriki ball'  

We hope everyone has had a wonderful term 2 so far. I know all of here in Rm 7 are excited to have some holidays!
