Manaakitanga

We met with Room 27 to learn a bit more about one of our values, manaakitanga.  Here are some photos and quotes from the children about manaakitanga.


"In the playground I sometimes help some little children," said Jonty.


"Manaakitanga is being friends with people who haven't got any friends," said Tim. 




"Manaakitanga is playing together," said Charlotte P.


"When somebody falls over you should say nice words and say I'm going to be your friend," said Aoife.


"Manaakitanga is playing games with new friends," said Joe.




"If you see someone in the playground give them some help," Emily said.

"When I was reading a book before I did some drawing, I helped a person," said Kacey.




"If some big children find some little children who don't have any friends they could start to play with them," said Dyllan.
