Choice and Challenge

Hopefully most of you got this letter on a nice piece of yellow paper on Friday. We have changed up Choice and Challenge and we look forward to having whānau on board with giving the children new experiences. 

If you want another paper copy of the letter then please let me know. Also if you can help with any dates outlined in the table, then please also let me know that!

Look at how much some of our Springston Explorers have changed! It is good to look back and see where we have come from and how much we have grown! Enjoy!

I Can Animate



Carol taught us over several weeks how to make animations using the iPads and application I Can Animate

We had such a great time putting the animations together and making up stories to go with them. This animation was done by Harriet and Māhora. 

What did you enjoy about their animation?
