This is our school. Our school's name is "The Gardens School." It is in Manurewa which is a suburb of Auckland city.
This is our school logo. It stands for the koru which is Maori for the fern frond - the growing part of a fern plant. It is a very important New Zealand symbol. Our school motto is "Growing New Horizons."
This is the place where we do technology. We learn food skills, sewing skills, woodwork skills, art skills and computer skills. This term we are making box cars (go - karts) for a box car derby (race competition). Poutama is a Maori word. It means "steps of learning".
To pronounce Maori words - use the same vowel sounds as you do in Spanish.
(Established 2009) This is the history of our Year 7 and 8 classes in Huia 1 at The Gardens School, NZ. We wrote for ourselves, our families and friends and for anyone who wanted to know what life was like at our school. From 2009 to 2013, Huia 1's teacher was Mrs Vincent. 1n 2014, classes changed and Huia 1 became Miss Murphy's room, with Mrs Vincent teaching on Thursday afternoons in Term 1. This blog has now ceased regular publication but is a record of our time together in Huia 1.
