RSS - Room 2 News
Hi. My name is Daryl Watene and I am the teacher in Room 2. My classroom is lucky to have two awesome teacher aides Nicky and Trace who work with the students on a daily basis.
I am now in my fourth year at Rotorua Specialist School. The class is made up of eight students varying in age from 16 - 20 years of age.
The students in Room 2 have a varied learning programme where literacy and numeracy are integrated with S.P.E.C (Supported Preparation for Employment and Citizenship which is a skills for living programme), LEGO, and music. We also have specialist involvement throughout each week that help our students to grow in their confidence, cognitive, and physical abilities.
The students also spend time each week off site which allows them to integrate within the community. We visit places such as MIGs gym (flexibility, fitness and overall hauora), Aquatic Centre (for water safety and swimming), the library and the redwoods/tree trust for walking and exercise.The older students have started transition and have also started work experience.
