Growth Mindset People

At school in term one we researched people who had a growth mindset.







I researched Jackie Robinson, I didn't even know anything about him. Did you know he was poor in his young ages and was told he was old when he was 27. I ended up writing 4 whole pages about him.Here are some photos

Pieces of the puzzle

Year 5 and 6: Piece of the Puzzle 

In Room 6 we are all a piece of the puzzle. There are 29 students and we each complete our puzzle. Without one of us we would not be Room 6. During the second week of school (once the year 6 were back from camp) we spent time learning about each other and completing our piece of the puzzle. We learnt that we are all different and unique made in the image of God. But we also learnt that sometimes people need a little helping hand to make learning fair. Check out our pieces of the puzzle in Room 6 Foyer to learn more about each of us.




“It’s always the small pieces that make the big picture.”

 Treaty of Waitangi 

During week 1 we were learning about the Treaty of Waitangi. The Treaty of Waitangi is New Zealand's founding document. The name is taken from the place in the Bay of Islands where it was first signed, on 6 February 1840. New Zealand recognise this special day with a public holiday. The Treaty of Waitangi is an important agreement that was signed by representatives of the British Crown and Māori in 1840. The purpose of the Treaty was to enable the British settlers and the Māori people to live together in New Zealand under a common set of laws or agreements.
