Lady Wigram Retirement Village vist

We loved visiting Lady Wigram Retirement village so much last week. We wrote about our favourite parts of the trip and some are published here for you to read. It's definitely going to be an inquiry Kōtuku remembers for a long time!

On a bright sunny Day kōtuku learning space went outside and started

walking to lady wigram retirement village it was a blast. I walked to lady

wigram with my nana, Tyler, Karaitiana, Riley and Sapphire. When we

got in to our lines for the performance we walked into the home and started

singing. I was the leader for  Mali mali mai with Ella. After the singing we

had some food for lady wigram retirement village. After they were full we

got to have the rest of the delicious baking. Then we sat down to talk to the

people. One of them was my mum’s friend. We talked to her too. Then we

walked back to school again. I loved going there.

On Wednesday Kotuku walked to Lady Wigram for morning tea. The Baking

group made fruity bites, chocolate chip cookies and muffins. We went to

Lady Wigram to do a performance and give them a worm farm. Then we

finally had morning tea. I followed the plates to try and get one of

everything.My favourite one was the white chocolate chip cookies.

I felt happy

On Wednesday (12 of September) the teachers, Kotuku and l went to Lady

Wigram Retirement Village. We went there to perform, chat, give them the

worm farm, and give them Morning tea. When we arrived all the residents

were at fancy tables with pots of flowers. Since we baked our Chocolate

chip cookies, muffins, frozen fruity bites, and oaty bite on Monday and

Tuesday we brought them over on Wednesday.We performed a couple

of kapa haka songs, and a pasfica song. First we sang Aoraki led by

Devon and Havana. Next we sang pusi Nofo led by, Vitolio and Ofa.

Then we sang A long way led by Tayla-Jayne and Dylan, it was beautiful.

The final song was Mali Mail Mai lead by Izaak and Ella. Now time for

my favourite part... CHATTING! I chatted with a kind lady wearing a silver

polar fleece and a long sleeve magenta top. After that it was Morning tea

time. My group which was Havana, Ofa and, Tayla-Jayne made delicious  

Chocolate chip cookies and they were eaten reallyI mean REALLY fast.

The kids got to eat one thing and,I decided to have a savoury muffin. Oops

I forgot about the worm farm, let me tell you about it. Mr.Rob came

up as well as the worm farm group and they talked about the worm farm.

They painted the colours red, green, brown and yellow.They painted the

old desk these colours because a kid said that it should be like a apple tree.

Then we had to leave but, I didn’t want to but guess what...We can come

back at Christmas and sing Christmas carols so, I didn’t feel so disappointed

after all.

Hello reader would you like to hear about the time we went to lady Wigram

retirement village, so we could give them something thing special? So we

did an epic kapa haka performance we sang Aoraki, Pusi nofo, its a long

way and Mali mali mai. After that we served some delicious food to lady

wigram (we made the food) then of course we had some cookies, frozen

fruity bites, chocolate muffins, oaty mini bites and savory muffins. Then a

group made a worm farm so their soil would be better. When we sang our

songs I was feeling nervous incase I messed up. When we gave them the

worm farm I was feeling happy for them. I would love to go back
