Love to play the ukulele

The Mighty Minnows and Team Harakeke love moving to music and learning the ukulele. Mrs Peterson has taken each class for a series of lessons learning about beat, rhythm, moving, and singing. She thinks it's a great way to spend an afternoon!

Hoon Hay's Got Talent

It was another fantastic year with Hoon Hay's Got Talent 2018, ably led by Mrs Dent and her crew. So many wonderful acts and the judges had a hard time deciding who to put through to the final. The whole school turned out to support their favourite acts and a past pupil, Min Bin came along to perform his amazing dance routine then encouraged the children to dream big and stay focused to that dream. Min did admit that he was sometimes a little bit of a challenge for some of his teachers, but he has found his passion in dance and he is doing amazing things now in America. Thanks Min for your inspiring words.

Lots happening in the Arts at Hoon Hay School!

2018 is in full swing and the children at school are enjoying many activities and opportunities in the Arts. From choir, drama, ukulele, and art - our children get stuck in and have a lot of fun with what is going on around the school. Classroom programmes include Rad Rhythm, music and movement, recorder and ukulele. There's lots going on!

Rad Rhythm is an online drumming tutorial using plastic rubbish bins!

Mrs Andrews brought Gilbert to school for the day. Isn't he gorgeous!
