Recently in Room 2 we have been talking and writing about our Family Treasures or 'Taonga'.
A family treasure is anything that is special to our whole family. It will have a story about it and it may hold memories of people who we love. It can be something old that has been passed down to us from our parents or grandparents. Or it could be something special that has been given to our family recently, and that we may even pass on to our children and grandchildren.
The children have been bringing in these treasures on their News Day to share with the others in the class. It is so interesting seeing these Taonga and hearing the stories attached to them. Everyone brought something in to share and talk about.
Thank you so much families for entrusting your treasures to us, so that we can get an understanding of what treasures, or Taonga, are.
Here are slideshows showing each child, their treasure, and a short story about it.
Enjoy.
Room 2 enjoyed watching their classroom slideshows. We have learnt heaps about treasures.
