Writing about "Our Heroes"

 Last week in Hurumanu 1 (Ngā Tāngata) we have been looking into who our heroes were. We brainstormed about 4 heroes in our lives and wrote down traits and amazing things about them. Then we chose one of our heroes and wrote a paragraph about our hero. 

I know that members of our class have amazing heroes. 

Below is an example given to the class. 

We are continuing to learn about different heroes and what being a hero means to us.

 Welcome to Miss Bancrofts Blog

I am a new teacher at Hornby High School and want to welcome all to my blog space. It has been a fabulous first week back for 2021 and I have been excited to meet all of my fabulous students. This week we have been getting to know each other. Many of my classes started with their Mihi, let me introduce myself with mine.

A little about me: I am originally from Rangiora but have travelled and lived throughout New Zealand. I first started teaching in Masterton (North of Wellington) and then returned home to Christchurch to be closer to my whānau. I am absolutely excited to be teaching at Hornby High School and am feeling very welcomed by staff and students.
