Week 9, Term 1

Dear Parents, Caregivers and Whānau,

Throughout the weeks of this term the children have been doing dance for fitness. Mrs Wrath and Mrs Western have been teaching the children to move to ‘Waka Waka’ (This Time for Africa) and 'The Cha-Cha Slide’. We spend such a happy time each week on the top courts and the children thoroughly enjoy moving their bodies as the music booms out into the neighborhood. Perhaps if you play the songs for your children at home, they may be inspired to teach you the dance moves or put on a show for you.
