A S S E M B L Y

Every Friday we have assembly.

The Year 7 and 8s host the assemblies and it is their responsibility to organise it and choose a song we are going to sing.

This week it was all about Liam, Rongo and Nathan.  It was a new step as it was our first day of GAFE and therefore Google Slides.  Not a bad effort for their first presentation!





Kahikatea's stars of the week are Porsha, Tyronne and Thomas!  Awesome work :-)

We got GOOGLIFIED!

Friday was a pretty exciting day in Kahikatea.  We finally got our GAFE (Google Apps For Education) accounts and had a good play around.

The process went like this:
1) fully understand the rules
2) read and understand the citizenship agreement and sign if we agreed to follow what it said
3) we got given our email addresses and our passwords so we could log in.  We then got to choose our own new password following the choose a good password guidelines.
4) We had a search around our google drives and found the work Whaea Danielle had set for us.  That helped us learn how to use Google Docs.

Check out some of our exploring below.....
