Soccer Skills

Today we tried out some soccer skills with Football Kids NZ.  We were lucky it was in the morning when the sun wasn't too hot because we had to run, kick and chase the ball.  It was exhausting but fun.Look at us concentrating and having a great time.  Thanks Football Kids.

Discovery Time

Today the Kowhai Team had their first Discovery Time.  

This time gives children opportunities to ...


  • Share and take turns
  • Solve problems
  • Show initiative and think for themselves
  • Help each other and work cooperatively
  • Be creative and think outside the square
  • Take risks and try out new ideas

Look at us at work.

Maybe we can smash it on the concrete. 
It's solid.  
Does it float or sink?
I'm being a creative learner.
How many can I pick up?
We're pretending to have tea.
It's chewy because of the wax. 
It's messy.
We just tasted honey.
I've made a house with pencils.
I don't know how many I've got. I'll count them.
Now I know how many.

We are trying to make the bee keepers special hat. 

We can't wait until next the Discovery Day.

Celebrating Chinese New Year

We loved celebrating Chinese New Year on Friday. 

Thank you Mrs Rolle for helping to organise this wonderful day at CPDS. 

Look at how we dressed for this special occasion.



This year it is the year of the rooster.  

We made some collage roosters. 

We were learning to be creative. 

You can see all of our roosters in the foyer by the staffroom.






Welcome to Room 4

We are a class of Year 1 learners at Cornwall Park District School in Auckland New Zealand.

We are trying to be creative, curious, self managing, flexible, reflective and connected learners. 


  


We have designed a class treaty together. 

It is like the rules we want to help us with our learning.
