Aotea Lagoon Picnic

On Thursday we had our Assembly and picnic to celebrate the beginning of Papakowhai School's journey as an Enviroschool. We set off after Morning Tea, walking down to Aotea Lagoon with our buddies in our Whānau groups. We had a lovely picnic lunch in the sun and plenty of fun playing on the playground! Thank you to the families who joined us and the NZ Police for helping us cross the road safely! Here are some photos of our day:

Miller's bunnies!

We were very lucky in Rata Whā yesterday. We had some special visitors in the morning. Miller and his dad brought their two pet rabbits, Flopsy and Henna to show us.

Miller and Mr Buck shared lots of interesting things about rabbits like what they like to eat, where they live, and how they fall asleep if they are lying on their back.

Huge thanks to Miller and Mr Buck for bringing in Flopsy and Henna. We loved meeting them!
