This week in Room 8 we DITCHED DIGITAL to focus on the Arts for meaning making and the renewal of hope. As Peter O'Connor says "Grounded in Papatūānuku, Te Rito Toi is at the centre and soul of healing, for even amongst the chaos of seasonal transitions, elemental effects and changes, Te Rito remains strong as the heart of the kōrari (harakeke).
Our focus over the past week has been building 'My Why' Poem (Selina Tusitala Marsh) and a drama around the Tale 'The Green Children' (University Melbourne).
This week;
I have heard laughter, discussion, chat and the sharing of personal insight...
I have seen smiles, collaboration, compassion and determination...
I have felt a sense of belonging and pride.
I see our Hope Soar and I feel our are Souls Healing!
Certainly looks like the transition back into SPS is going well...remember to be kind to everyone you encounter and especially be kind to yourselves!
ReplyDeleteHi Room 8 I've always looking at your blog I wish that I can see you again because the last time that I saw you was last month. Always be a good model to the students in Saint Patrick's School and always listen to Ms. George because she is your teacher. I miss you Ms. George and the Room 8 girls
