We are learning about some of the birds of Aotearoa, their habitats, and how we can show kaitiakitanga for these manu and their spaces. 

Questions:
How can we take care of our place/animals/ecosystems?
How are living things suited to their particular habitat?
How do living things respond to environmental changes (natural or human-induced)?

We are learning about the way our local communities have utilised the invaluable Harakeke.

Kererū have looked at the origins of Ngāti Kahu - from the voyage of Tūmoana to Kahutianui's arrival on the Karikari peninsula. 

After we have discovered what happened, we wrote and performed a class play at school assembly, and also created our own versions of waka hourua to understand how our ancestors came to Aotearoa.
