Term 2

Welcome back to school!
Its great to have everyone back and raring to go!

 One project that we are starting this term is our Parents with Degrees programme.

We are going to invite several parents into our class over the term to share the educational journey that they made to achieve their degree.

If you are a parent and would like to volunteer please get in touch with me (you could even use the voice mail option to the right of the blog!)

 If you are a student and would like to listen to Mr Theo explain how to organise the week that you are running the Parents with Degrees programme please see the videos at the following blog: http://parentswithdegreesplanning.blogspot.co.nz/

 It should be a great experience for all involved!

Kakapo in the news

To give you a break from your Our Place Homework - Read below to hear about Kakapo birds in the news..

Kakapo are in the news at the moment as 7 birds have travelled the length of the country to inhabit Great Barrier Island. It is hoped that they will start to grow in numbers on the pest free island. Check out the story here.

You could also look at the trailer for a documentary that was made about the Kakapo two years ago here.
