Congratulations to all our wonderful staff here at Poroutawhao School for continuing on with the implementation of our localised school curriculum suitably titled, "Poroutawhao School Learning Highway". It warms my heart to see the ideas that we have "thrashed out" over the last two years or so come together into a framework that is truly focussed primarily on the needs of our students, modern educational theory and our own community values. Further to this, I am absolutely certain that we have a compliant curriculum that meets the requirements of the NZ Curriculum. I look forward to having this reinforced by the likes of ERO at some stage.
Well done for your work on our term 1, integrated unit relating to Heroes. I was thrilled to know that our children can now decide for themselves who or what a hero is to them. I was also thrilled to see and be part of the myriad of learning activities that helped them reach this point. Our planning, teaching and assessment work, incorporating our new Inquiry Tools, ICT and SOLO taxonomy are becoming more powerful and effective everytime we do this.
Keep up the good work. I think your all awesome.
Neil H.
