Tamariki Korero 2020

Today we had a great chance to invite our whanau into our classroom and show them around. Many of us ran out of allocated 15 minutes time slots when talking about our learning in Room 5. All of our parents were impressed by our learning and progress. What a great event we had! It was like a big celebration!

Room 5's students - ALL of US - were very proud to talk about our learning, and we definitely impressed our whanau! So many laughs, smiles and positive comments! We are so lucky to have such supportive families! Ano te pai, Room 5!

We appreciate all the cultures at GTS, and today we were lucky to experience another great example of how many people from different cultural backgrounds came together to share food, positive thoughts and kind words! 

All GTS students, teachers, whanau and guests got together to spread the love and respect by helping and supporting each other after the long lockdown time!

It was a very special day at GTS!
