Wonder Project

Have you ever wanted to build a rocket? Have you wanted to become a video game designer? The Wonder project is the first step to doing that. Also we are going to actually fire a tiny rocket using water and air. This happens once a week where a ambassador comes in to teach use about rockets and other stuff. This week we assembled our crew and the and ambassador (Si Hung) told us about himself, he is a engineer. We are going to learn about Newtons Law and stuff like this. Here are some photos:

Martariki Day

Kia ora and welcome back to my blog today I'm going to talk about Martariki. Martariki is a Maori event where 7 stars indicate the Maori new year. We did three activities. The first activity was making Maori kites, we use paper, cord, bamboo, decorative strips and feathers. The kites can't fly but they are cool. The second activity was making Maori bread which only used self raising flower and water. The final one was we had to make a stop motion and it was great. Here are some photos and the stop motion:

Cross Country 2020

Hi and welcome back to my blog, yesterday we did the school Cross Country for 2020. The Cross Country is a school event we do every year, we do activities and a running course in our age groups which makes our feet hurt. The year 6's don't do the activities but instead help and lead the activities. At the end the of the day the year 6's do the running course and then pack up, the year 0 & 1's, 2's and 3's run once around the course. The rest of the year groups run twice, the top 5 people in all of these groups go into the Cross Country zones (that's for another blog). The activity I did was the second one where we did a warm up, played duck duck goose and watched the runners. The run for the year 6's was hard as we had to run on the field, run down the steps to backtrack (I did this barefoot, which is probably why it partly made my feet hurt), Run though the bush (this mostly made my feet hurt), Run around the fence of the pool, run past te waka ako and we had to do it all again. I really liked the run and spending time with my friends but I didn't like that it made my feet hurt. Here are some photos:
