Amazing Arewhana have been busy these last 5 weeks, from having Constable Nicki to swimming in our school pool. Constable Nicki is doing a programme called Kia Kaha and we are learning to deal with bullies!! Zero Tolerance!! The types of behaviours we should be using in and outside our classroom. Swimming has started and it has been cold. Our teacher shows how to walk into the pool safely and how to walk around the pool. We also used the float board to learn to kick and float from one side of the pool to another. We also used the hula hoops to swim through.  We have two more weeks of swimming and we are looking forward to them. Til next time.  Ciao From Amazing Arewhana.

Amazing Arewhana are lucky enough to have Manurewa Football Club sportsman to come and share their skills with us. We learnt how to control the ball by listening to instructions. We used most of our body parts, for example our foot, knee, bottom, back, stomach and head. It was a lot of fun. And we can't wait for every Thursday, because the guy they sent, he will be back to share his knowledge with us again. Thanks for visiting our blog.
