Term 2 week 9

This week has been exciting because we have done some different things.  This has been our first full week with Ms Crowther, but we had Matua Andy on Wednesday when Ms Crowther was at a netball tournament.
On Tuesday we went to the Orakei Marae.  We learned how to weave flax and we also learned that the first flax weaving you make you must give away.  Most of us gave our flax fish to our parents or friends.  Max gave his to Ms Crowther.  We learned about the seven stars of Matarike. We also learned about the Wharenui and the carvings inside. 
We have had a change around in our classroom.  The furniture has been moved and we are also sitting with new friends.  We also have some new books to read.  It is fun to have a change.
