Our Interviews

We have worked out that Hauraki School is a community because everyone has a job, and all the jobs are important...but we've realised that we don't really know much about everyone's different jobs.
So...we made lists of all the people we knew that work at Hauraki School, brainstormed what we thought their jobs were, then wrote some questions to help us find more out.
Next...we took some of our questions, our 'microphone' and set off to interview some of the workers around school.

We talked to these people, and here is what we learned from them:
Mrs Franklin is the Principal. Her job is not too hard, but very busy, with lots of different things to do. She loves coming to school.
Miss Whitehouse is a teacher. She helps children to learn and grow up to be smart. She works on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.
Mrs Gillies is the teacher in Room 4. Her children are Year 1 & 2. She helps the children learn.
Mrs Jones' job is to help Mrs Franklin run the school, and to help the Junior teachers and children. She also helps the children who find learning hard. It is a very hard job and takes a lot of time, but she enjoys it because she likes the children, the teachers and the school.
Mrs Waghorn works in the School Office. She loves her job and enjoys all the people.
Mrs Golightly teaches the children in Room 15 to read and count. She says teaching is not an easy job - sometimes it's hard.
Mr Pipes thinks Hauraki is the best school in New Zealand! He is a classroom teacher to the children in Room 16. He is also the Deputy Principal and leads the Senior school.
Mr Cullen is our caretaker. He does a lot of jobs like hammering, drilling, mowing the lawns, taking care of the school pool, keeping the courts clean, weeding the gardens, getting the leaves out of the gutter on the roof, unlocking the doors in the morning and locking them up when the children go home. He enjoys working with the children and teachers.
