No Hat, No Play!

Since Summer is approaching, sweatshirts and trousers are now BANNED! The sun is shinning everywhere around Auckland and I haven't seen a drop of rain around. At Ruapotaka School, hats are to be worn at interval and at lunchtime play. Not only are students wearing hats, but so are teachers on duty.

"No Hat, No Play," is a simple rule used for sunny days like these ones. Students without hats sit under the shelter, to keep nice and cool, on a hot day. The sun is going to burn off for a hard 3 months (November, December and January) and going to the beach or pools in the holidays would be appropriate.

Reminder: Hats are to be worn on heads at all times, and it is not a glove.

Final Technicraft Of 2017

On Week 7 of Term 4, the Year 8 and 7 students had their final Technicraft of 2017. The Year 8's finished off in Mr Grundy's class, while the Year 7's finished their last tech off in Mr Pineda's class.

After weeks of working on a project with Mr Grundy, which was stained glass, most Year 8 students finished it off. Basically, we had to illustrate an image on a piece of paper (e.g castle) and finalise it with stained glass.

Unfortunately, I didn't manage to finish, due to the lack of time I used on tinning the glass pieces together. My design was a volcano, and I was proud of what I created.
