Our 'Voki' Stories

After such huge success with our 'Voki' Stories everyone is keen to make one. To prevent our blog becoming cluttered with 18 stories I have made a link to a wiki on the right hand side of the blog. Click on this to take you to our learning zone so you can hear your child's story online using an avatar.

Aliah found out that the sun is a star.

Eve reads Greedy Cat




Eve read the story 'What does Greedy Cat Like?' into a microphone to record her story. We then made a character called an avatar. Eve made her character and the background then we added her voice. She read her story really well.

WE WON!!!




Wanaka Primary School celebrated nude food this week. There was a school wide competition to see which class had the least amount of rubbish in their lunch boxes. The winner would get a plater of fruit. WE WON!! One other senior classroom had the same amount of rubbish as us - 4 pieces! Amazing effort mums. Thank you. The fruit was amazing and it took all afternoon to finish it. Every bit of fruit was eaten though.
