Buddy Reading with Room 24

As part of our CARE programme we meet with our buddy class, Room 24 as often as possible to share our learning and read with a buddy. In addition to finding out what is happening in other classes across the school, we get to read with and be read to by our buddy. We also enjoy seeing our buddies around the school at break times and in assembly.

CARE Values: Community - Taking Turns and Joining In


As part of the CARE Values at Oaklands, joining in is an important part of being an excellent community member. Participating in the Junior Choir required weekly commitment along with  remembering all the lines and actions.
It was so much fun performing in front of our Whanau and the school.






Protecting our Sea Creature's Habitats - Writing


I am learning to use describing words to make my writing more interesting.
I have also been learning to use different sentence starters.

'My writing tells you a lot about the ocean and what happens when we don't look after it. I have used different sentence starters and described what is happening.'
