Getwise Financial Literacy Lesson

As a part of Mathsweek, we had a special visit from Serena the Superhero from ASB who is a Super saver. She helped all the students to know the value of different coins and notes.

She also taught the children the difference between needs (things we need to survive like water food and electricity); and wants (things we do not need to survive like games and toys and fancy clothes). Sarah got to play a special acting role and decide which money she saved, and which money she spent.

We learnt a valuable rhyme to help us remember:

Speed to your needs

and

Wait for your wants.

Now all the students in Room 3 have the power to be Super savers too. 

Thanks Serena.
