WELCOME TO 2014

Kia Kaha Kāhu!

Term 1, 2013

Tena Koutou Katoa.

Welcome to all the Parents and Caregivers of our learning space the Kia Kaha Kāhu! (Room 20). This translated means ‘Be strong, Get stuck in, Keep going Hawks!’ Māori knew older hawks as kāhu-kōrako, a reference to their pale feathers. As hawks grow older, they lose the dark plumage of youth, and some very old birds appear almost grey. That is our aim, to be the wise grey hawks of Rowandale School.

My name is Letitia Voss and I am truly excited and privileged to be able to facilitate the learning in Kia Kaha Kāhu this year. Over the past few days we have been creating our learning brand, developing our treaty and setting the expectations for our classroom. I believe this collaborative approach creates a positive and caring environment that fosters learning and inclusivity.

Uniform: It was really awesome seeing the students come back to school in their uniforms.  Please make sure that each uniform item is named so your child can take care of their belongings.

Swimming: Our swimming days are on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday every week.  Please ensure your child brings their togs and towel in a named plastic bag on these days.

Topic: We are investigating Taonga this year. We are endeavouring to create a depth of knowledge within life, culture and families about treasure. This topic will follow where the students lead. I am very excited to get into this very exciting topic!

Homework: For homework, the children will have a reading book each night and basic facts sheets. It would be great if you could work with your child in these areas.

If you have any concerns regarding your child, or have any questions or comments, please be in contact. I look forward to working along side you and your child this year.

Naku Noa,

Letitia Voss
