Meet Miss Ellis

Hi, my name is Sarah Ellis and I am the Reception Room teacher at Arahoe School. I love my role, supporting our newest learners as they transition into primary school. You can expect to hear a lot of singing, as I love to play guitar and sing. In fact, we start and finish each day with a song!

I have been teaching 5 and 6 year olds at Arahoe School for 5 years and love working with our young tamariki. I am excited about Term 1 as we are going to be learning a lot of neat stuff through Technology and Science. Come and have a look at our kitchen space where we will be cooking up a storm.

Our topic is 'Run, Run as Fast as You Can'. There will be a lot of outdoor fun and running as we adventure through our learning, as well as cooking and chasing gingerbread men!

I am looking forward to meeting you all!

Ka kite,

Sarah
