Every Rāmere, all the Year 0 and Year 1 tamariki come together for a team hui. At this gathering, we sing some action songs or waiata, we learn new Te Reo words, and we acknowledge our fantastic learners who displayed the Learner Profile attributes. After this, each teacher offers a fun craft activity and the students can choose any one of these to do before they can do some fun, free-choosing activities. At this time, the students have opportunities to work with other teachers, as well as students from other classes. Working with other teachers and other students helps develop open-mindedness and risk-taking, as the children are encouraged to step out of their comfort zone, and attempt something they would not usually do. You may wish to talk with your child about what they did for Fun Friday, and who they worked with at this time.
