Assembly on Google Hangouts

Today we held our second Pt England School Assembly via Google hangouts (aka Google meet). Jahzara and Toby, our school Rangatahi, led us in the karakia and mihi.

This is a great way we are able to stay connected as a community during this time we are all in lockdown. Last week's assembly drew a crowd of more than 200. How many do you think took part in this week's assembly??

Holiday blogging!

Just because it is the school holidays doesn't mean you need to stop learning! There are so many things you can be doing around the house to keep learning.

Year 5/6 Camp 2020

Here is a movie to have a look back at the amazing time we had at camp! Amazing sunrises and sunsets, swimming, kayaking, dancing, slip 'n sliding,  cycling...the list goes on!

Remote Learning - Awards from assembly

This week, the way we do school changed. With the whole of New Zealand in lockdown for the next 4 weeks, school has gone remote! The children in room 10 are doing some amazing learning from home and have not let this change phase them!

Congratulations to our 2 recipients of awards from today's Pt England School assembly online!

Year 5 and 6 Camp 2020!

What an awesome 3 days of camp we have just had! Last week, 120 year 5 and 6 children camped for 2 nights on our school field in tents! During the three days of camp, we took part in a range of fun activities which helped us learn how to work as a team and build our confidence! Here are some photos from our camp:

Stay tuned for a movie of camp highlights this week!

PENN Movie Term 3

Room 10 really enjoyed going along to Sylvia Park for the Manaiakalani Film Festival last week. We took on an extra responsibility by looking after the year 1 children. We also decided to go around the school to ask some other children what movies they enjoyed. Check it out!
