Term 2 Week 2

Harvest Festival

On Thursday we had our annual Harvest Festival. Thank you so much for all the effort you went to providing food and decorating your boxes. The girls took their boxes up to the front of the hall during our our Chapel service creating an abundant display. Judy accepted the gifts on behalf of the Anglican Trust for Women and Children and was moved to tears by the generosity of the families at Diocesan. Thanks again.

This week we launched into our new Inquiry.  We are exploring the central idea, what would a world without buildings look like...?

The girls were told a story about a boy coming to New Zealand over 150 years ago.  We discussed how his family would need to make a 'home' for themselves here and then asked the what the family should bring in their 1 trunk.  Needless to say when the girls were asked to then sketch out their make shift building, they realised that maybe makeup, shampoo and conditioner might have been unnecessary!

Keep an eye out for the village we will be creating!
