Go the Mighty all blacks

I am loving the rugby world cup spirit but I am so sick of seeing so many flags here and there and everywhere I see some mini flags ,medium flags and big flags covering their whole entire car but I guess it's just being supportive for their country. All I have to say about the rugby world cup this year is Go! the mighty All Blacks .

New Zealand Champs

" Misson Accomplished" has your school entered the Aims games and brought back a Trophy Our school has.

Last week on Sunday Our rugby 7's boys went down to Tauranga to represent our school at the Aims game .

Our Boys won all 12 games that they played including the semi finals to become New Zealand Rugby 7's champs . On Friday evening the rugby 7's boys came home proud and knowing that they played well on and off the field .

I felt speechless when I heard they won the competition and brought home the one and only trophy for New Zealand Rugby 7's champs

Design process

This term our topic is bigger better faster and stronger so for the previous weeks we have been focusing or identifying a need that needs to be solved which was to design some furniture for our year 7 and 8 students .

David and I have been researching on the internet looking for creative ideas for furniture. We decided to create some shelves that appared on the net,
we then drew the design on hyperstudio to get a idea what some design we could make.

First of all Through the generating process we had to modify and change the design that we had decided to use, and then tick the one we were sure about and what would be better to make .

Rugby league session

rugby league session

During this week on Wednesday 22 of June room 22 had a rugby league session on our school courts with one of the 2011 Vodafone Junior Warriors known as Sio Siua Taukeiaho.

There were 3 drills that we played which were called in and out ,zig zag and Rugby tennis. We were split into 4 teams I was in team 1. we only had 7 players so one us had to run twice which was Junior .

Our first lesson was in and out were all four teams had to run individually Zig zagging in and out of the cones placed in front, we would score a point for the first team to sit down my group won the first time.

I’m not sure what this drill was called so our second drill of the day was we had to weave through our team and then sprint back to the start to score a try.

Last drill of the day was called kick tennis, were the four teams had to combine as two teams , we had one even side of the court and so did the other team , we had to kick the ball to the other players but trying not to get out or kick the ball too short or kick it out side of the cones we had three games ‘I felt like continuing.

Rugby league can help in a way like fitness thats what I like the most about it. I can’t wait unti next time if there is a next time.

The Fonterra science Roadshow

On the 9th of June room 22 and the rest of the year 7 and 8’s walked down to Tamaki College to learn about the science at the Fonterra roadshow. The Fonterra science roadshow travels around Aotearoa teaching children about science, technology and innovation.

When we arrived we were greeted by two scientists Paul and Jane giving a presentation on fire. It was exciting because one of the scientist used thrilling things like flames, blow torches, candles and acids.

There were six themes in the exhibits which were detection, heat, communication, leavers, gears and inclined planes, sound and quirky curiosities.

In detection exhibits some if the substances were radiation, bird songs, fluorescence's, mass spectrometer and a lot more. These were about electricity, identifying and analysing. This was my favourite exhibit.

My overall higlight for the road show was having to look arpund at different exhibits and learning new things.One thing that I would change would have to be the talking 'That was the worst'.
