Important Stuff for Camp Vertical Horizons

Stationery

A big thank you to all our whānau who have bought your child's stationery and it is now ready to go at school.  We have managed to name everything and collected in the spare books, pens, and pencils for later on.  Below is our stationery list with what the names of the books are if you are planning on covering your child's books.  What a great start in Tūhono everybody!

Growth Mindset and Mistakes!!!

We value the value of.....posing questions that have more than one answer We value the value of....allowing students to share their thinking with each other and to collaborate to discover different ways of learning and solving We value the value of......building a classroom climate where our learners feel comfortable to share their thoughts with each other as they are learning, taking risks, and running the risk of not being correct....yet!!!!

Welcome back to 2018 in Tūhono!!

    

Glamping in true Tūhono style!

What a way to end our final full week as our Tūhono Hub 2017.  The day begun with the tent pitching in which the students had to work together without any adult help to get their tents up.  We could tell which children had had lessons the night before and which ones hadn't!!  It felt like we were on camp.  Our beautiful school pool was a favourite hangout for the day, we also had gymnastics, cricket games, dancing to music and just chillaxing. 

It was however four seasons in one day and we had a little bit of rain at midday :)  Luckily we are so flexible that the bbq and food was served under the school gazebo and we had our picnic lunch in Te Puawai.  A big thank you to our wonderful whānau for helping us prepare and cook our lunch.  Big ups to Andre Siraa, Mike Wood, Amy Fale, Robyn Clough and Jo Jackson for being so amazing.

The sun returned for the afternoon and once our tents were packed away, we had a massive water fight.  Everyone left school a little bit wetter (including Mrs T and Mrs C) but we all had an awesome day!  Only one and a half days to go Tūhono :)
