Morena,

Today's challenge is all about magic and motor skills. 

Do you already know a magic trick or could you research and learn a new one? You could even investigate some famous magicians. You could learn how to play a new card game (last card is my favourite) or practice tying different types of knots. 

We are very excited to see your learning from today!

A puppet is an object, often resembling a human, animal or mythical figure, that is animated or manipulated by a person called a Puppeteer. Today you can be a puppeter!

Get creative and make a puppet, create a storyline and a set, make some music and get your drama on!

You could prepare your show with tickets and pop corn and have a special viewing for Mother's Day.

Below is the link to the Theatresports website highlighted in the picture.

Watch the Kauri Team's Mum Video
Mother’s Day is a day for many people to show their appreciation towards mothers and mother figures in their lives. And we reckon that means that mums everywhere deserve a day of relaxation and pampering. 

In preparation of Mother's Day on Sunday 10th May today's challenge is to create something for your mum, grandmother, aunty or other special person that is always there for you.

​We look forward to seeing what you create for your special person particularly photos of the Sunday breakfasts made to be delivered to in bed.

Morena,

Today's learning challenge is all about floating and sinking.

​Start by having a hunt around your house for some objects and predict whether or not you think they will float or sink. In your predictions you could use the word 'because' to tell us why you think that. Once you have done that experiment it is time to get creating and make a miniature boat. 

We can't wait to see photos from your learning today!

Lucas Caddy has a cat called Molly and he knows a lot about how to take care of her. 
​Lucas said you can buy cat biscuits at Countdown or the vet. A cat needs to sleep in something like a bed, it can be in a garden or on the floor in the lounge.
​Cats can live for a long time even up to 15 years
