At Worser Bay School, we sometimes work in Whānau groups. These are groups of children and teachers across the school. There is an added bonus- siblings and families work together. Teachers and students learn from each other! We have been thinking about Tuakana/ Teina. The older students teach the younger students. The roles can also be reversed. We saw this with great energy today!
We have been learning all about whanaungatanga across the school. Whanaungatanga is about relationships between people, people’s relationship with the environment, and the relationship between people and the non-physical ‘spiritual’ world.
Autahi students taught us some sign language.
Tautoru taught us about kākahu (māori cloak). We made a kākahu and wrote down different ways to show whanaungatanga on the feathers.
Matariki Māhutonga ran workshops linked to the value of whanaungatanga.
