Te Rehia Theatre Company
On Wednesday 22nd March we had a visit from the Te Rehia Theatre Company who came to perform a play called Ruia te Kākano: Ngā Maunga Kohu.
It was about a girl called Mia who had the talent of talking to animals. Her and her best friend Hoiho became heroes for all the animals in the world. They came across a letter from a mother sloth called Consuela who was concerned her son Carlos was lost in Venezuela. They visit Kiwi who thinks Patu, the cheeky patupaerehe is behind it. Kiwi and Mia go to Venezuela to try and catch Patu. Kiwi and Mia fall for many of Patu's tricks but they eventually capture him when he tries to impersonate the mighty Tāne Mahuta. They find out Patu is lonely and Carlos is his new friend. They make amends and the trio travel back to New Zealand to see Hoiho.
The show promotes Māori language and also incorporates some Spanish. We really enjoyed how the actors were able to change their voices and loved learning some new vocabulary.

Swimming with Erin from Kiwi Swim Safe
On Thursday the 7th and Thursday 16th March we had swimming lessons with Erin from Kiwi Swim Safe. She taught us the skills necessary to survive in the water if we had an accident and also the correct techniques for swimming. We really appreciated having her expertise!
