Ngake Hub Production

 This week we finally got to present our Hub Production called Off the Planet

Our Inquiry topic for this term has been Space. We decided to incorporate some of our learning into our hub production.

Our production followed a Grandma and Grandpa reading the children a bedtime story. The story takes us on a trip through space where we meet some friendly aliens and take a tour of our solar system; learning about the planets, the moon and the stars along the way. 

All of the children in the Ngake Hub did such a wonderful job learning the songs, the actions, their lines, their places on the stage and the art of performing. We are immensely proud of these kids for their huge achievement- It was an amazing show- one they will remember for years to come.

Here is a photo of our dress rehearsal:

100's Party

Room 3 and 4 have been doing lots of learning about numbers this year. Each day we have been putting a stick in the jar until we got up to 100. We count the sticks, talk about the number that comes before and after the number of the day. We figure out if it is odd or even and we work out how many more days until we get to 100. To celebrate all of our learning, we had a party! Here are some pictures of the delicious food we had and some pictures of the activities about 100 that we did.

 

 

 

We made jewellery with 100 beads
