Kia ora e hoa ma,
What a wonderful day it was yesterday with our whanau from Hastings Intermediate delivering their shipping container filled with care packages and supplies for the community. It was a really special day. I was so happy to see everyone back at school, even if it was only for a little while. Keep watching John's blog for updates.
The teachers have been busy setting up the classrooms and getting ready to reopen. There is still work to be done to make sure we are ready, but things are looking pretty good! We have been having fun wearing our hard hats and high-vis jackets. :-)
Here are some useful links so your children can keep busy and learn while at home:
- Maths games for 5 and 6-year-olds
