As part of our ‘dance’ topic, during PE, we have been looking at some New Zealand Hakas. We learnt some of the moves and how the moves are repeated in beats of 2 or 4. We then tried to create our own in groups of 5. Well done class 6B.

This week, 6B have started their new art topic of ‘Landscapes’. We began by looking at the painting ‘The Flora of the Heath’ by Paul Klee. We created our own painting, using poster paint, using Paul Klee’s as inspiration.

Well done 6B.

Well done to year 5 and 6 for participating in the athletics event held at TCAT today!

As today is National Poetry Day, class 6B were inspired by the ‘Refuge’ poem and tried to write our own. We are reading the text ‘Letters From The Lighthouse’, and this looks at WW2 refugees. We talked about how similar refugees and evacuees are and felt inspired to write our own poetry. All of the poems were amazing and some people even managed to write them making sense backwards! Take a look at some examples.

Class 6B have been learning some Spanish, as part of our European Day of Languages today! We have learnt how to greet people in Spanish. Well done everyone!
