Samoan Language Week - Challenge Two

Today our challenge was to say 'O a mai oe?' and reply 'Manuia Fa'afetai'. This means 'How are you?' and 'I am good thanks'. It was pretty tricky, but luckily we had some experts in the class to help us. Check out our video!

Samoan Language Week - Challenge One

To celebrate Samoan Language Week, the classes at Rowandale have been set a series of challenges. There will be a different one each day. The winning class gets to work with a Vodafone Warrior. Challenge one was to use 'Talofa Lava' in a creative way. Here is our video. Wish us luck!

New furniture!

On Thursday we were very lucky because we got some new furniture for our classroom. It is cool because all the furniture is at different levels and we get to choose which level we want to work at. When the furniture arrived we all worked together to decide how we wanted to set up our classroom. Here are some pictures of us exploring our exciting new furniture and moving it into place. You can also see our finished room. We are very proud of it. We think it looks a mazing and can't wait to do lots of learning in it!
