So we are at Covid-19 Level 3 going into Level 4 from Wednesday. As parents and caregivers we all know what we need to do and we have plans in place already. Safety of our people and community comes first, however our junior members will require more attention and busy work.
As teachers we are trying our best to keep the learning going. In today's digital world it is possible for our kids to learn from home.
Let's team up and work closely for the benefit of our students.
To do so, please keep visiting our school website to find out more about 'work at home'.
For the students in Room 5, I will be uploading some useful websites and tasks that my students can access from home. If you have any questions or queries please don't hesitate to e-mail me at: schawla@hns.school.nz
We'll get through this crisis together.
In the mean time stay home, stay safe.

Good morning all!
So here's the task for you all that you could do with your caregivers and siblings.
In shops with lots of ice-cream flavours there are many different flavour combinations, even with only a 2-scoop cone. With 1 ice-cream flavour there is 1 kind of 2-scoop ice cream, but with 2 flavours there are 3 possible combinations (eg vanilla/vanilla, chocolate/chocolate, and vanilla/chocolate).
- How many kinds of 2-scoop cones are there with 10 flavours?
- What about “n” flavours?
- Create a poster that represents your whanu's thinking.
*I have e-mailed your parents some information regarding reading tasks. Please email me back for your passwords.
*Are you reading any books from your bookshelf?? How was 'enemy-pie'?
Cindy's response to the problem! good job Cindy!

Part of our Term Topic - Through the Window we looked back through the "Windows of Time" at clothing. How did clothing look, what was it made from and how is it different from what we wear now. We thought dressing up in 'olden day' clothes would be fun and you can see how much clothing styles have changed.
