Welcome back to school

Kia ora all! My name is Miss Kaczmarczyk and I have the pleasure to teach Room 15 children in the absence of Ms Spicer who has been unwell. I was employed to co-teach with Miss Frampton in Room 14 and will do so when Ms Spicer is back in the second half of November. 

I am originally from Poland and moved to New Zealand about two years ago. Prior to that I lived in London for about ten years where I taught Reception and Year 1 children in a South-East London school. I am a mum to three wonderful children: Nela (20 months old), Micky (3 years old) and Marcel (8 years old). 

If you have any queries or would like to have a chat I am always available in the mornings and afternoons. You can also contact me by email: sylwia.kaczmarczyk@oaklands.school.nz



New term - new learning opportunities. During Breakouts all Year 0/1 children are split into six groups which are going to rotate throughout the whole term so each child will participate in PE, Art, Te Reo Maori, Sun Safety and Science sessions.  


PE with Miss Nicholls

The children are learning to throw accurately, jump further and travel faster in PE.


Art with Miss McPherson

The children are working on colour mixing, talking about primary and secondary colours. They will be making an artwork using pastels that includes the Earth, Sun and sky which links to our Science topic: "The Earth and beyond" with the Big Idea being: What changes could we make to protect our Earth?
