Speech Finals

 
Congratulations to Holly, Aimee and Mckenzie for representing the Kauri team at the school speech finals.

All three girls did a wonderful job.

Aimee and Mckenzie are going to represent Clevedon at the Rehu Tai competition next term with their flash talk and poem.

Emotion Poems

Along with our colour poems we have been writing we wrote emotion poems too. We talked about what the emotion looked like, felt like, sounded like, smelt like, tasted like and what particular colour represented that emotion.

For example;
Blue = sad
Pink = embarrassed, love
Red = anger
Black = fear

Here are some of our poems.

Colour Poetry

We have been writing poetry this week. We started with colour poems looking at what the specific colour is in the world followed by what we think it looks, feels, tastes, smells, and sounds like.  Here are some of our poems that we have written.

Firewise

This term we have been learning about firewise. Today firefighter Matt came to talk to us.

Points from his talk:

• Smoke is fire.
• Get down, get low, get out!
• Firefighters need special gear before fighting a fire.
• If there is a fire we need to shout fire, fire, fire!
• We need a safe meeting place to meet all your family and to ring 111.
• Smoke alarms give us a warning after 4 sec.
• We should have a smoke alarm in every bedroom, hallway and lounge.

Poetry: Just Because

Poetry

This week we have been writing poetry. We have written 'Just because' poems and 'I am ' poems.  Here is an example of both:
