Our Learning Term 2

This term our concept is DISCOVERY.

Our essential questions and understandings are:

  • Discovery helps people to know God
  • Discovery is never ending and can lead to change now and in the future.
  • How can we discover?
  •  How can people discover God?
  • How might Discovery affect our Future?
R.E
This term we began with some important Liturgical Year celebrations,  The Ascension and Pentecost. During Pentecost we celebrated the birthday of the Church with a liturgy and cupcakes in Saints Teams. We worked in teams to create and share party games with the children in Rongo. Our Strands for Term 2 are Holy Spirit and the Church.

Week 5 - Science Roadshow





On Thursday LC3 checked out the Science Roadshow. We got to explore the interactive exhibits and watch two exciting shows. The first show was called Mighty Materials and demonstrated the physical and chemical properties of substances like metals and fabrics and how these are put to use in everyday applications. The second show, Sounding Out Waves, explained the characteristics of sound such as pitch, volume, how fast it travels, what substances it travels through, how it travels and the many effects these have on things we can or cannot hear.

A big thank you to the parents who came along and helped.
