School Song - Hope

Lyrics

Hope

Taitapu……te wāhi nei

Kō te kura Oaklands

Aue Aue

Kō mātou tamariki

E tū mai nei

Me ngā kaiako e awhi

Tō mātou ako

I ngā mea ō te Ao

Kia manawanui….nui

Taitapu .……te wāhi nei

Kō te kura Oaklands

Aue Aue

He aha te mea nui ō te Ao

He tangata,he tangata

Kō mātou …..ngā tāngata x2

( kimihia tō kaha x2 )

New Zealand Shake Out

Last Thursday, Oaklands School participated in the nation wide "Shake out". We  learned that no matter where we are or what we are doing, we need to stop, drop and do the turtle shape in case of an earthquake.

Here is Room 19 in action.

Art Murals

During Term 3, the whole school was working on producing Art Murals. To produce the murals each class had to collaborate with others. Rooms 18 and 19 work with Rooms 5 and 6. Here is the mural we produced.

Our mural represents the transition from Kakano to Kauri.

Here are some of the murals on display.

Come and visit Oaklands School to see them in person :)

Teacher's Band

Last Term, Oaklands School was very lucky to get a SUPERSTAR band visit and perform during an assembly. The performance was exciting and jaw-dropping. We hope they come back to visit soon.
