Breaking the lock

Today all the year 6 students from kiwi and takahe came into Ruma Kiwi to do an activity with a guest. Our goal was to use all the clues to break our lock. We were in groups of 4 to solve our clues. We were allowed using hints if we tryed really really hard. My group was with Abbey, Georgie and Ruby, we were group yellow. We had to crack the silver and black lock. After that we got a bonus clue to unlock the last padlock to get to the inside of the box. We were times with 45 minutes and there were 7 padlocks. We did it with 6 and a half minutes to spear!!!!

Little garden in Ruma Kiwi!!!!

Book character dress up day

On Friday was goodwoods dress up day and their were some amazing characters. We had to try to recuse things from ho e to put in to a costume. They all turned out great...

Takahiwi

Lately Takahe and Kiwi have been working together a lot. We can switch between classes, to change up our learning spaces and work with different people. We learn with different teachers/students during our workshops. Takahe and Kiwi enjoy working and sharing learning together to get feedback and feed forward for our different jobs or work we do in our own classes. 

We enjoy this because we like working with the different teachers in different classrooms. In Takahiwi, we plan different events that are involving all of us in some type of game or meeting group.

Our writing

In Ruma Kiwi we have been working on our explanation writing. We did animal writing, if I could be a animal for a week I would be.... I did a dolphin but there were lots of other awesome animals that the children of Ruma Kiwi did. I enjoyed this because I like art and Miss Collins let us do art with our writing.
