On Fridays we have Choice and Challenge in the junior school. Rongo-mā-tāne and Papatūānuku get the morning to do fun activities and work on challenging themselves.
One of the activities is board games. If they choose this they get to play all sorts of different board games. We have Beetle, Monopoly Junior, Buckaroo, Game of Life Junior, Uno, and Loopin' Louie. It's a great opportunity for everyone to practise our school values of resilience, self-managing, success, and integrity.
There are always lots of laughs and team work. Sometimes a bit of healthy competition happens and that's ok, we work through it and come out happy in the end.

Maybe on a Friday you could choose boardgames and see how you go.
