Day 1 Level 4 Lockdown- NZ!

Mōrena team whakarua! 

This morning we held our first google hangout and what a great turnout we had. It was great to see all your faces, animals and play a game. We discussed our online learning for the next three days. Check out this link on our learning site and have a go at our daily challenges! 

Expect an email from your homeroom teacher tomorrow morning for the link for your homerooms google hangout at 11am (Thursday 19th and Friday 20th). Can't wait to see you there!

Be sure to make a nice comment on this blog post for a 'thank you' ticket when we return back to school. Perhaps you could share what work you might do today or something you plan on doing over the next three days with your family.

Kia kaha, be kind to one another xx
