Seasons Haiku Poems

Raumati
The sun is shining
Kids are playing in the sun
Running on the beach

Ngahuru
Playing in the wind
Leaves are falling to the ground
Orange, red, yellow leaves

Hōtoke
Cuddling and snuggling
Drinking yummy hot chocolate
Eating chicken soup

Kōanga
Making daisy chains
Colourful flowers blooming
Lambs are frollicking

By Zaafiya Dean - D3

Raumati
The sun is beaming
Walking on the sandy beach
Fresh sea water waves

Ngahuru
Jumping on bright leaves
Precious gold leaves falling down
Cleaning the garden

Hotoke
Drinking hot chocolate
Hearing wind and heavy rain
Wearing a blue scarf

Koanga
Flowers are blooming
Colourful flowers, growing leaves
Lambs frollicking

Happy Diwali from D3

Happy Diwali from D3!

D3 learnt that people celebrate Diwali by dressing up in new clothes or their best outfits, lighting up diyas inside and outside their houses, participating in prayers and having fireworks. After fireworks, people have a family feast and have sweets. D3 watched a video clip about the story of Rama and Sita and learnt the meaning behind Diwali. It shows the victory of light over darkness, good over evil and knowledge over ignorance.

D3 celebrated Diwali by making and decorating paper diyas. We had lots of fun!
