Wow, we are up to Week 4 already!! The count down is on.
All the students have settled and are enthusiastic about the work they are doing.
Our major focus this term is our service project Giving in Kind - Pay it Forward.
The project begins this week!! The children have been given their 'seed' money today ($2) and have 4 weeks to make it grow. The children have to use thier gifts, talent and thinking skills to make their seed money grow. The ideas have been endless; from bake sales to car washes to making and selling items on Trade Me!! At the end of the 4 weeks we wil donate our money to a service organisation in the Wairarapa...we will be Paying it Forward.
We haven't decided who we will donate to as of yet. The children are busy researching organisations in our community. Each class has short listed 4, and have sent emails off asking why they should be the recipients of our money. Exciting stuff WATCH THIS SPACE!!
