WEEKLY BLOG :Week ending, Week 2, term 4  Friday 29th October.😉😊💥😃😄✋✋👏👏👏

And here we are at the end of week 2 of term 4 already.

The weeks are just racing past!

We have had a good week at Bubble School with our children constantly showing and displaying to each other our New Windsor Values , especially being kind anhd respectful to each other .

We the bubble school staff really do apreciate our 2 bubble class students  attendees, and thank them for showing such good manners and resilence in times that matter.

Today they were all out side socually distanced enjoying an arts and craft day , then the rain came to visit💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦😲😲😲

This  didnt dampen  our moods as we moved the activities into the hall space, again, socially distancing.

So we have now been given a tentative date for Primary Schools to be returning, with the emphsis on the word : Tentative. What ever that means.

We await more details from Minister Chris Hipkins as to what Staggered attendance looks like, and means.

AGAIN, THE BEST AND SAFEST PLACE FOR EVERYONE TO BE AT THE MOMENT, IS AT HOME.

Have you taken time to read some of our student blogs and class blogs?

There are some very creative and well composed stories written by students that will keep you as the audience captivated to read on..

Please check out and comment on  our class/student  blogs as our teachers and students put a lot of work into these.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😀😀

A final reminder that the Ministry of Education rules for Halloween are:

At alert level 3, tamariki will not be able to go trick or treating on Sunday.

While we cant celebrate Halloween in the usual way, there are are alternative options you can do at home in your bubble.

Try a Halloween themed scavenger hunt in your back yard.

Decorate your house in a spooky dtyle.

Have a virtual costume party via zoom with friends and whanau.

Watch a movie with popcorn and other treasts togther as a whanau.

Happy Halloween going out to everyone, for those that do like to celebrate the occassion.

 Weekly Blog .Week 10 of term 3 Friday October 1st.

Who would of thought we would get to the end of term 3 and be spending more time in Pandemic lock down than actually at school being face to face , enjoying being with our friends and getting on with learning...📀📉📗📘📙🔍💡💡

There is a saying that goes:

A pinch and a punch for the first of the month, which is a saying to wish good tidings upon us all at the beginning of a new month.

We have been very busy with Bubble School class this week and getting on with the business of making learning fun. Our  Essential workers children have been a pleasure to have at bubble school, and are looking forward to fun times at home during the holidays.👍👍👍👍👨👩

As the holidays approach we wait in anticipation as we get to find out on Mondays Covid briefing how long we will be in level 3 for.

Next term being term 4,  will begin with the Celebration of Niuean and Cook Island language weeks which will feature many activities for students to engage in as a class and as individuals .

I would like to end this blog  with a very speacial Thank you message to all our Parents and students for keeping calm and carrying on in making what we all could out of a very topsy tervy unpredictable  term 3.

We have all shown and put into  practice  our school vales of resilence, co operation, being respectful ans collaborating as a few examples over lock down distance learning programmes times of term 3.

This was clearly evident on the daily  class zooms meetings as far as our students connecting and coping with learning of a new type that could be our norm for the way that future learning will/may  happen.

Thank you one and all for your support , and maanakitanga towards our teachers and distance learning programmes requirements.

It is now time for us all to disconnect with our learning devices and create some fun times with our families and loved ones.

See you all in term 4, heres hoping we will have more weeks at school and not carrying on with many more weeks of having to be in level 3 ✌👌

Take care everyone, rest up, and be kind to each other.

Lets all go find some shine shine..

No Reira, me mitaki lahi ,

Ms Siohane.

Summer is coming, and so will be the radient sun shine weather of Summer....😄😄😃😃👍
