Thursday 16th April 2020 Kia ora Kererū 11-14 whānau, We hope you are all well and are managing during these unprecedented times. We are looking forward to connecting with you all daily. Message for children: Morena children and welcome to our second online learning session. How did your school work go yesterday? Can you make your own daily timetable? Email your teacher and let her know what you have done. Message for whānau: Dear Whānau, Please look out on Monday for the first of two ‘Zoom Check-Ins’ that we will hold next week. This is a chance for some face to face interaction with students and teachers and a time to reflect on this week's remote learning. It is also preparation should we be in lockdown beyond the 24th, as staff will be hosting two ‘Zoom Check-ins’ every day. It provides us with the opportunity to unravel any glitches that may occur before launching daily interactions. Our homebase Zoom meeting times will be Monday and Wednesday at 10.30am. Look out for your first zoom link in Monday's daily plan. Zoom notes for whānau Here is the planning for the day. We have also added the schedule for the MoE TV channel on TVNZ 2+1 at the end of this document. Please contact your child’s teacher if you have any questions. Have a great day :) Today we are providing the following opportunities for learning... Literacy Writing A Moment in Time Playing in the rain...
