Week 2 Action Stations
Students in Matai have had lots of fun getting to know each other and trying out our Action Stations. Through these, children learn to use important life skills such as co-operation,
communication, turn-taking, self-managing and persevering.
Can you match rhyming words?
What can you build with the Duplo? 
How high can you stack the chairs?
Can you finish the jigsaw puzzle?
Can you read a book in the Library corner?
What can you make?
Welcome to 2017
Kia Ora!
