WHAT A WEEK!

This week we have had a variety of different subjects, and I’m going to talk about the social science fair. We have been working so hard that steam is pouring out of our ears! Our theme  is about the Maori culture and how they lived. Maori lived in houses that had sticks and straw roofs that touch the ground. The doors are cut out of the side of the house, the door was as big as a quarter of a  door like ours. We would also like to thank you for the school disco that some adults planned for us. All the kids at Otatara School loved it, we hoped you did too.  We hope you do it next term.  Composed by Rachel, Billea - Nova and Amelia

   KUTAI FRITTERS

This week the Lynley Dodd reading group which is Amelia, Brayden and Jacob baked Kutai fritters with Amelia’s mum Lana.  Kutai is the Maori word for Mussels.  Kutai fritters are mussel patties. We got to bake them in the staffroom.  Because we read about Kutai fritters we decided to cook them because they looked yummy! After we made them we shared them with all of room 9.  Most of the kids liked them but some didn’t.  Thank you Lana for sharing your expertise with us.  Here are some photos for you to enjoy.  By: Brayden, Jacob and Amelia.
