Cultural Day

All of the Year 2 and Year 3 classes enjoyed our cultural morning earlier this week. Lots of children dressed up in an outfit that reflected their culture.

After singing the national anthem together all of the classes took turns in sharing something they had learnt. We saw songs in Japanese and Samoan, a Greek dance and many other items. Room 6 shared a Matariki story and waiata about the stars. Everyone had a chance to dance together at the end of the session.

After morning tea we returned to the hall for some story telling and singing. Finally it was time for our shared lunch. The food was delicious! It was great to see the children trying different foods.

Thank you so much to all the parents and carers who put together outfits, helped children learn lines, prepared food and to those who were able to help us with serving the food and clearing up on the day. It was a wonderful opportunity for the children to mix with other classes, share their learning and find out more about other cultures.
