Month: October 2023

We love it when Erica (our mindfulness coach) comes to visit every second Wednesday as she helps us with our mindfulness and calming techniques. Here are some photos of us during mirimiri (massage). Some of the techniques and words we use to describe them include; cat scratches, hot oven, feather fingers, and raindrops. Try these out at home!

If you haven’t already, check out our Aotahi website and click our mindfulness button. There are some links to more sessions from Erica that we have completed at school.

What a week! What a day! There will be lots of tired children coming home from school today. We have had such a great first week back to school and have loved welcoming our new families to Aotahi.

Friday is often called ‘Fun Friday’ in Aotahi. It is a day where we get to participate in lots of different activities like; choice and challenge, library, poetry, loose parts shed and then end our day with a quiet active play session. We had so much fun trying new things with our friends. Here are some photos from throughout the day.
