BBM Mindfulness with Whaea Leah

Today, during Mindfulness with Whaea Leah we had to work together as a TEAM to get our team members across the river and back again. We had to do it safely.

It was a bit tricky because we had to figure out the best order for us to get our team over. But it was also LOTS and LOTS of FUN!

School Kit - Let's get NZ Writing

Today, we finally got to try on the 3D glasses and read our poem that we wrote together! We even got to have a look outside with our glasses on and the sky looked AMAZING! 

How to make Panipopo - By Ava May

We have been learning about procedural writing and using Samoan dishes to write recipes for. Here is Ava-May's Panipopo writing. Click on the image to take you directly to her Doc.

Samoan Language Week - Panipopo

Today we learnt about a Samoan dessert - PANIPOPO (Coconut Buns)

We watched a video from Coconet tv to help us cook. 

To save time, Mrs Faalili made the dough at home. When it was time to make our pani popo the dough had doubled in size! 

We each worked in groups of 3 to make a tray of panipopo. We got to punch the flour, flatten it, roll it and then cut into pieces. Once it was cut, we put them in our tray. 

For the juice, we used coconut cream, water and sugar. We mixed it together and then poured it over our buns. We saved some so that we could put some on the buns while they were cooking. 

The end product was DELICIOUS! SWEET! JUICY!
