Getting ready for Gala

This year Gala is being held on Easter Friday, which is only a few weeks away.

Every year our classes have a stall at gala where they sell items to help make pūtea for the school.

This year in Room 3 we are making candles, as well as some jewellery.

Today is our first day of having a "crafternoon" where we will begin to construct our candles. We are setting them in concrete so that once they burn out we will still have a candle holder where we can place another candle.

In preparation for our "crafternoon" Whaea Ads helped us write up our instructions in English, as well as Te Reo Maori. This way we will be able to check in our books to see what it is we are supposed to be doing.

1. Get your container
Tikina mai tō ipu.

2. Fill with concrete
Whakakī i ngā whakapiri

3. Put your candle in it.
Purua  tō kanara ki roto.

Oasis and Ishika's instructions with their pictures of what they think the candles will look like. 

Keep your eyes peeled to see our finished results!
