Our New Topic!

On Monday, we started our new topic called "Passion Projects". It is every Monday period 3 (11:40 AM) to 5 (2:00 PM - 3:00 PM) and Thursday period 2 (9:40 AM) to period 5. There were different options to choose from. The teachers had sent a google form about what topic to choose, Music Theatre, Outdoor Education, Discovery, Move to Improve, Community, Maths Craft, Digital World, Wearable Arts and Stone Sculpting. We had to choose three topics, I had chosen, Discovery, Digital World and Maths Craft. The teacher had shared a spreadsheet of what everyone had chosen and what the teacher put us on. Luckily, I was in Discovery, and I was with my friends, Vann, Axle and Ranit.

On the first day of Passion Project, we had met in Science. Our discovery teacher was Mr Stock, he is a discovery teacher. We four had different ideas of what to do. We had to choose three ideas of what to discover. I had chosen, making a telescope, making a volcano and electrical circuits. Also, we had to find out what you want to do after sharing your ideas. After hearing Axle's idea, it was a dish called Ratatouille. I wanted to join him. Axle and I asked Vann and Ranit to join our group, they said yes. Our second idea was also from Axle, it was Mozzarella Cheese. We have discussed as a group and we've decided what to do.

To Be Continued...

Next time I'll post about our update, I'll tell you what our plan was. I hope you like my post about Passion Project. Comment down below if you like my post. Have a cool day!! Bye!!

NZ Music Month

This term our topic is NZ Music Month. We have collected information about NZ Music Month and made a presentation about it. After we had to choose a New Zealand song to research about the Artist/Band who made the song. If you don't know what NZ Music Month is, let me tell you when it started. NZ Music Month started at 1997 by the name of NZ Music Week. We have worked hard to finish this work. I hope you like my presentation. Have a cool 😎 day!! Bye!!

Flying Saucer?

This term Ako Ngātahi are learning about Mysteries. We have been looking for some mysteries like Fiordland Moose, Roswell UFO Incident, The Lost City of Atlantis, Bermuda Triangle, The Power of the Pyramids, BigFoot, Crop Circles, Stonehenge, Easter Island, Loch Ness Monster and Arthur Pass Moa Sighting. We had to choose what mystery we are doing. I chose the 'Roswell UFO Incident' because I like to learn about UFO and other related mysteries. Next we had to make a Wanted Poster about our mystery in Google Drawing by our self. We had to collect information in our Wanted Poster. Here is my Wanted Poster. I hope you like my post about my Wanted Poster! Have a cool 😎 day!! Bye!!

Master Chef

Today for Master Chef we have to make 4 different types of food. We made Salad, Fruit smoothies, Zucchini Parmesan Crisps and Hawaiian Chicken Kebab's. First our group, Megaladons made Salad and we all worked together as a team. Then we made Fruit Smoothies and there was heaps of bananas, pineapples, kiwifruits and oranges. It was really fun to make a few smoothies. In the ending I make a smoothies with lots of bananas, some pineapples, kiwifruits, oranges with some yogurt and milk to fill up the last bits of the smoothies. It was lots and lots of fun together to make the 2 different types of food. Hope you like my post! Have a awesome day! Bye!!
