Poor Sean!
Poor Sean
came to the staffroom in a distressed state after getting an enormous splinter
in his foot. (From walking on the deck in bare feet)
Three
centimetres of the jagged splinter, thick as a matchstick, were still
protruding from the wound and the shocked teachers were unsure how far the
stick had gone in. Having recently completed their first aid training they all
knew not to try and pull the rough wooden shard out but get Sean to a medical
centre for treatment. Sean put on a very brave face as the splinter was removed
and he was given a tetanus shot (injection) to ensure the wound did not become
infected. Sean’s foot will be tender to walk on for some time.

Inquiry Question
Today we looked at early Maori explorers and what they would have faced on their journey to New Zealand. We looked at how they would have navigated the ocean. In the article that we read as a class they mentioned a tool called the 'Tirito 'etu' or starpeeker. It looked like a coconut with holes in it in certain places. We wondered how they would use it.
Homework tonight! See who can find out some details about this tool.
