    Welcome to 2021! 


    I am very pleased to be teaching you again this year! 

    There is a great deal for you to discover about yourself and to utilise your strengths to the best you can be this year! Great year for you to invest in yourself and nurture your pono to grow greatness across the 4 cornerstones of MHJC!

    We have developed an exciting Term 1 context for you: 

    The Me in Team

    Whānaungatanga

    This term, across your learning areas, you will be developing your interpersonal skills and learning about leadership, and the role people play in a team or community group.

    In time, you will be identifying a community issue and solving the following problem: how do we teach the community about how we can work together to find a solution for the community issue?


    In English, to help you explore the ideas of leadership and teaming, we start by studying a range of short texts.

    Learning Intentions: We will be developing our understanding of...

    • how texts are shaped for different purposes and audiences.
    • ideas within, across, and beyond texts.

    Success Criteria:  I can.....

    • recognise, understand, and consider how texts are constructed for a range of purposes, audiences, and situations
    • identify particular points of view within texts and recognise that texts can position a reader
    • make meaning by understanding increasingly comprehensive ideas in texts and the links between them
    • make connections by exploring ideas within and between texts from a range of contexts


    Aroha nui
