Week 8

Talking Topic: A favourite photo
Sound of the Week: Short o
Maths: Multiplication & Division
                           Learn your times tables!!!
Colour: We completed our Mondrian copies of primary colours- they look amazing.
We also made air dried clay beads. We will paint these two different primary colours and the secondary colour that these colours make.
Lastly the koru art has been glued onto its mounting sheet. I think this is my favourite piece of art from this term - WAY TO GO!!!


Totara students have been practising taking interesting photos using macro or photographing something in an unusual way. There are two categories

  • living 
  • non-living
Students can take photos at home and email them to school steve@solway.school.nz  or send them on a pen drive. All photos must be in by this Friday.
A big thankyou to Cheryl Falloon for transporting children to the park on Thursday for a photo shoot.  :)
