Tuakana Teina Day

Today was Tuakana Teina Day for Tamaki Primary School!

WALT: explain and reflect, on our Tuakana Teina day!!

It was very fun and active today, their were many activities that everybody had a chance to participate in.
We had to do many activities with our buddy classes, like...


  • Make up a secret handshake with your junior student (Practise until you all remember it)
  • Draw a “selfie” of your group. Colour and decorate each member
  • Read a book of your buddies choosing from the library (Don’t forget to talk about the book with them and ask them questions)
  • Practise writing with the chalk outside (Names, numbers 1-10, letters)
  • Teach your buddy a hand game
  • Create some name artwork with all of your names
  • Play hopscotch with your buddy
  • Build something with straws
  • Read the book and words in your buddies book bag
  • Teach your buddy a card game (Memory, go fish, snap)
  • Eat a piece of fruit with your buddy

Here are some photo's below of how fun TUAKANA TEINA day was.
















Here also a Video of my groups "Secret Handshake".
