ASB Get Wise

We had a visitor from the 'ASB Get Wise' programme come and teach us about financial literacy.  We learned about the concept of earning, spending wisely and saving.
We played a game where our stick figures went on holiday to Fiji.  We needed to make decisions about how to pay for things like accomodation and tickets, choosing to either use cash or credit card.  We also needed to decide which deal would be the best. 
We found it quite stressful at times, but enjoyed it!  We learned to ask lots of questions and research the deals.

Pet Day 2018



 

We recently held our annual pet day.  Each child completes a pet project on one of their pets or a pet they would love to own.  On the day pets are brought along to be judged, and the students participate in workshops.  The winners of each category receive amazing prizes from our wonderful sponsors, thank you!
This is Mia's information report on her horse, which was part of her pet project.  She also completed an outstanding poster too.
