The students had an amazing day last Thursday as the Tractor Trek came to school with Cat Levine and the Think and Be Me Show.
First up, the Tractor Trek. Our tamariki were wide-eyed with wonder as a convoy of tractors of all shapes and sizes rumbled onto the field. The tamariki loved getting up close to the machines and even getting a chance to sit in the driver’s seat. A huge thank you to the Tractor Trek organisers and the generous tractor owners for sharing their passion with us! Ngā mihi nui to Leahana (Josiah’s mum) for taking such cool photo’s of our class.
The students were then treated to the Think and Be Me Show which included participation by lots of our own students and Whaea Jade too. This interactive and engaging show delivered powerful messages about resilience, self-belief, and celebrating our unique qualities. We are using Think and Be Me strategies to help us notice how we feel and strategies to help us manage our feelings. The characters Worry Watchdog, Angry Dragon and Cool Cat have been wonderful in helping learn the strategies. (Click on the link above to visit our class site)
