Room 12 Assembly

On Monday, Room 12 hosted the first Senior Syndicate Assembly for Term 2. In our assembly we made a game show and called it Class Feud. The game was based on the T.V show Family Feud. The contestants had to guess the answers to some questions. Room 9 won the game.

Then some students received a certificate for good learning in class. We also sang songs like Am I Wrong by Niko and Vinz and Hello by Adele. 

Our Assembly was lots of fun.

During The Holidays

In the holidays I went to Waiheke Island. My family and I woke up at seven o'clock in the morning, and we drove to the train station in Glen Innes. We waited for a few minutes after my dad bought the tickets for the train. Eventually, the train arrived and we hopped on board. We were heading to the city so we could catch a ferry on Waiheke Island.

When we disembarked, we had to quickly buy breakfast and wait near the checkout. We quickly ate our breakfast and then had to board the ferry. During the ride, I saw splashing waves and amazing views. When we arrived on Waiheke Island, we went through the forest. We also saw people in the forest. My family and I walked for a few minutes and finally found a restaurant.

They had some nice food on the menu. Later we ate and we went back down the forest and to the bus stop. Next stop we went to the beach. After the beach we went back to the ferry. Soon after a few minutes, we went back home.

What a fun and exhausting trip.

Holidays Are Near

This week is the last week of Term One. Next week will be school holidays. We will have school holidays for two weeks and will come back to school on the 2nd of May. I'm looking forward to the school holidays.
I will be going to the movies with my family, because it will be my cousin's birthday on the 1st of May.       It will be fun in the holidays.

Room 9 Assembly

On Monday it was Room Nine's turn to host an assembly. That was the first time that Room Nine had hosted an assembly this year. We sang songs like Count On Me by Bruno Mars and Flashlight by Jessie J. Also two people from each class had to contribute in a quiz about ANZAC. Room 12 won the quiz and received a laminated trophy. After the quiz, the teachers handed out some certificates. One for A grade homework, and one for learning in Class. I'm looking forward to another syndicate assembly next term.

Special Duffy Assembly

Last week on Friday after the lunchtime bell rang, we had a special guest coming to visit us. Her name was Rivender. When she came, she told us about what her jobs were. One job she did was to host shows, and she was on television. After she spoke, we sang the Duffy Song. When it was nearly time to go back to class, Quros had said a, "Thank you," to her for coming to our school. Then she gave him a hug.

Volcano Science Experiment

Last week on Thursday, we had another science experiment. It was about making a volcano. Again, we had to create an aim, hypothesis, ingredients and result. After we created those things, we went outside to make the volcano. My group followed our hypothesis, and it worked in the first try.
I hope you enjoy this experiment and you can try doing this at home.

Lava Lamp Science Experiment

On Wednesday we did a science experiment making a Lava Lamp. We had split up into groups and tried to figure out ways to make a lava lamp. We typed down our aim, hypothesis, ingredients and results. For some of the groups it worked out but unfortunately for the other groups, it didn't work out.
