On Monday Zach's dad brought a mini stock car which his sister drives. Speedway racing is the Hatton's passion. Dad Dave drives a super stock car but was unable to bring the car on Monday.
Thanks so much to the Hatton whanau for sharing this with Kauri Hub.

HOP MOSAIC ARTWORK
David and Max created these wonderful mosaic tiles at HOP. They chose their subject, smashed the ceramic tiles, traced their picture, applied the glue, the tiles and the grout. Frustrating at times, definitely messy but soooooo satisfying and they are sooooooo proud of their artwork. Thanks Mrs Cacace!!!

Grandparent/ Koroua/Kuia Descriptions
For the first 4 weeks of this term, Room 10 and 11 had the task of compiling a biography about a grandparent/koroua/kuia. This was their opportunity to interview, construct a timeline and then write a description of a grandparent as seen through their eyes. Here are just a few examples of some wonderful pieces of work. Please visit your child's blog to see more.

Growth Mindset versus a Fixed Mindset
Kia ora koutou
I found this description of a Growth Mindset versus a Fixed Mindset. In Kauri we are developing a Growth Mindset, the ability and capacity to be lifelong learners always growing and developing as people.

Growth Mindset
When I fall, I learn.
If you succeed, I'm inspired.
I can learn anything I want to.
When I am frustrated, I persevere
Tell me I try hard.
versus
Fixed Mindset
I'm either good at it or I'm not
When I am frustrated, I give up
I don't always give things a go
Tell me I'm smart.
When I am frustrated, I give up
I don't always give things a go
