Talent show

On Friday the 22nd of march it was our school talent show. Lots of kids entered. There was dancing, singing, gymnastics, a play and jokes. I really enjoyed everything. Since I am on the web committee  I got to take photos of the people who participated i n the talent show.

Raranga Matahiko - Waitangi

On the 8th and 9th of February the year 6’ s went to Waitangi Treaty Grounds  we went to a program called Raranga Matahiko - Waitangi. When we got there the two teachers introduce themselves their names were Whaea Kerry and Whaea Monika. We split in to two groups and one half of us got to go with  Whaea Monika and explored the museum and the other half of us went with Whaea Kerry and got to have a tutu. We got to try out all the technology that was there. There was a VR virtual reality and green screen were my favorite the other things they had were Coding robots, Stop motion, Sculptgl, Paint 3d and Tinkercad.  With the green screen we could jump of rail into space and that was really fun. With the VR it was really cool cause you could make snow or put fire on the ground. After we had had a go at everything we got to go out for a hikoi. We explored the whole museum we learned about how some of our ancestors came here and we learnt about the treaty. At the end of the museum there was  a big green stone in a little pool of water and you had to wet your hands before you touched it. It was very smooth. We are making carvings for our waka and we made people to go in the Waka we also made hoe.

Pet Day 😊

In Te Maunga we have been making all kinds of things. On friday the ninth of November we had pet day and flower day. We made vaseline saucers. I made a pattern with red rose petals and pink and white petals.  I made a Novelty container out of a volcanic rock I did not get a prize for that. I came first in the wine biscuit and made three, one had a lolley bat and the other two were aliens. I also made a poster for the A&P show I did not get a prize for that. There were lots of different pets someone even brought some freshwater crayfish. There were dogs, cats, guinea pigs and rabbits. I really enjoyed pet day. 😊

Water safe 😎

In Te Maunga we did water safety with Tracey. We learnt about how to be safe around the water. These are some of the safety rules:

1. Never swim alone  
2. Check the weather
3. Tell someone where you are going and what time you'll be home, and how many people are with you.
4. Bring a surfboard or a boogie board 😎

Rebecca Brothers 😊

In Te Maunga we have been learning about Rebecca Brothers an Olympic Ambassador. We got into peers and made a google drawing. We had to write appropriate  questions about her. Rebecca Brothers won 249 medals all together and 110 were gold were 49 bronze and 90 silver. I learnt that if you try your hardest you can do whatever you want. 😊

Geometry😎

In Te Maunga we created a google drawing about geometry. We learnt different angles like 360, 180 and 90 percent angles. What  I found tricky was trying to figure out how many sides and corners on a 3d shape.😎

Procedure

This term in Te Maunga we have created lots of procedures like baking, making flubber and lots more. We learnt how to set out a procedure like first you write the goal,  then you put what you need, after you put the steps. I enjoyed making the things then writing the procedure. 😎
