🌱 Growing, Caring, and Learning Together! 🌱
Our tamariki have been amazing kaitiaki (guardians) of our newly grown grass! Each day they’ve made sure it’s watered, checked on its growth, and celebrated the changes they’ve noticed along the way.
It’s been such a beautiful learning journey showing responsibility, patience, and teamwork. And now that our grass is flourishing, it’s also become the perfect spot for us to practice our cutting skills ✂️💚
This afternoon our curious tamariki explored what happens when different colours meet. Using jars of coloured water and paper towels, they watched the colours slowly travel, mix, and create something new right before their eyes.
There was so much excitement as tamariki predicted what might happen — “Will it turn orange? Maybe purple?” and then checked back again and again to see the changes unfold.
Experiments like this spark wonder, support early science thinking, and give children a chance to explore their ideas together through kōrero and play.
Ka rawe, tamariki
