Hectors World

Kia ora Simon! Awesome to see you are following us!
Our school has joined many other schools throughout New Zealand to be an Enviro School. Simon is with Wanaka Waste Busters but has worked with the Otago University to put together a very userfriendly Enviro School resource. Our school is beginning the year looking at finding ways to create and live in a healthy and sustainable community. Simon will be helping us and the children will just think he is great. I had Simon teaching in Room 23 last year as we were wanting to get going and looked at 'How to Beautify our School'.

Our childrens' environment also includes the digital environment. As you are on the internet and will be an internet user you will appreciate what a scary place it can be. Children need to be taught how to keep themselves safe and understand why. Could you please follow this link to Hectors World with your child and do all the activities. Hectors World is about internet safety but in a child friendly way. Children who do this at home will be used as experts in the class. They will teach the other children how to use the computer! Go to it!
