Tui Class host School Prayer

It was our turn to take school prayer on Monday. Our theme was Belonging and we all had a part to share on our 'Church, School or Home Family'. I was so proud of how everyone was so brave standing in front of the whole school. Despite a few sound issues the school thought we were wonderful.

 

Fantastic Performers

We were lucky enough to have Kahurangi Theatre come and perform to our school on Friday morning. They were inspiring in their professional polished performance of rakau, poi waiata and action songs.

Then on a less professional but still enjoyable level (especially when some of the cast members are relatives of Tui class) Kotuku came and performed their plays for us.

Red Nose Day at Sacred Heart Petone

What a great day we had on Friday. It was Red Nose day and everyone wore as much red as they could find to raise money for Kidscure. Our Discovery Time theme was red and there were lots of fun activities ranging from dress ups, crafts, red PE gear, painting and a firm favourite making strawberry jam sandwiches.

Welcome Mila

On Monday we welcomed Mila to Sacred Heart Petone. Nicolette from Petone Kindergarten came along and shared her portfolio with us. Her big brother Jack introduced her and Mum Lucy spoke too. Dad, Scott and little brother Noah were there as well as Gran. Mila is very lucky to have a great buddy called PJ.

Duffy Role Model Assembly

After our Liturgy we had two past pupils from Sacred Heart come back to talk to us about the importance of books and reading. There were some of the best speakers we have ever heard. Very very funny. What made it even more special Emilio is Eden's big brother! Chris was the other speaker and he is now the Head Boy of St Bernards.

Assumption Liturgy

This week we have been talking about Mary and The Assumption in classes and we had a beautiful liturgy on Friday. Mrs Bell created a very special liturgy, Father John celebrated it with us and several seniors were readers.

The Amazing Skylab

To help us explore ideas around our school topic for the term Ao Tukupu- Space, we had a visit from Gloria and the amazing Skylab.
We had to crawl through the tunnel into the lab. When Gloria turned the lights off it was pitch black but we could see the stars! It was fantastic and we learned lots of facts about what is above us in the night sky.
