Price Waterhouse Coopers Financial Literacy! Term 3 Week 6

Kia Ora Whanu and Friendly Viewers!

Week 6 has been so interesting with

our visitors from PWC, 

(that is, Price Waterhouse Coopers).

Our tutors were Hari, Elliot and Christie.

They taught us about saving money,

spending wisely and trust.

Elliot and Christie introduced the programme and gave out the booklets.

We read through it carefully and wrote our answers.

We did role plays to show what we might do in different
situations. Elliot helped with this one.

Christie worked with Ocean to do this role play.

We all got a certificate at the end. 

THANK YOU PWC! We had fun and we learned a lot.

Great effort was made by all students this week

to learn and recite a poem off by heart!

We had a recital in our class and students

chose the three best presenters. 

Congratulations to Ngahuia Mamanu, Malachi Tipi and 

Ocean Cross!

We are so proud of how you stood up in front of

the whole school and recited your poems 

with expression and confidence!

Very well done all of you!

Ocean, Malachi and Ngahuia waiting for their turn.

Good job Malachi!

Toitoi a-go-go! Term 3 Week 3

Kia Ora Whanau and Friendly Viewers!

Another great week of learning with Room 5!

The fabulous people from Price Waterhouse Cooper and Toitoi came to spend time reading with us this week!

This is issue number 16 of students' work from all over 

New Zealand and we have submitted some

stories and illustrations too. 

We will have to wait until the next issue to see

if any of our work has been published.

Nim made us laugh and he did really good explanations of words.

Yi was kind and patient and taught us some new words,

Mona helped us to understand some words that we hadn't had before.

Leigh helped us to use our voices for more expression.

Glenda told us more about Queen Elizabeth and her life
when we read about the Queen taking over KFC.

Alice used her lovely English accent to do a very
'Queenly' voice at the end of the story.

We really love to read!

Thank you Nim, Mona, Yi, Leigh, Glenda, and Alice for sharing
