What is PB4L and what does it look like in our learning hub?
PB4L is a school wide programme for positive behaviours and helps to build a culture where positive behaviour and learning are inherent in everything we do. We have a weekly focus for our PB4L Poutama time which we incorporate into our daily slides.
Matarawa Daily Discussions
One of our first sessions each morning is a daily connection as a hub where we share in discussions as a whole group with specific focus on behaviours, learning principles and values. This is also a time to ensure we all receive the same messages and expectations for the day of learning.

Week 7
This week we had a focus on friendships in our Learning Hub and what this means to us. As a hub we talked about why friendships are important to us and what makes a good friend. We watched several videos around friendships to support our learning and then reflected on what they meant to us individually and on our own friendships.
We then explored our Learning Principle of Collaboration and what this looks like to us in Matarawa, and how working together can have fantastic benefits for us all.
