Rising Water

 Greetings Everyone,

Today I'm going to share with you this blog post. This blog post is about an experiment that we did call Rising Water. The materials needed are Petri Dish, Candle, Lighter or matches, Cup, and Water. This experiment aims to see what happened to the water level when the candle is covered. In my prediction, the water level is a little bit higher and a little bit longer for the candle to die. For the result of our experiment, I saw the water level rise and the cup is stuck on the water. When the air is hot in other words high pressure, the water level is probably higher than cold air. When It has a low pressure, which is the opposite of the high pressure, it'll have less water.

Shark Infested Custard Game

 Greeting Everyone, 

Today's blog is about a game that we did in Hurumanu 5 Health class. The game that we play is called the Shark-infested custard game. The game is all about teamwork, communicating with each other and creating a strategy. It's a game. In order to play the game, you need to have 3 hoops for the team and 2 to 6 people on a team. The rules are to go to the finish line and when your teams go outside the line you need to go back from the start.

ESOL: 100 word challenge

 Greetings Everyone, 

For the past few weeks, we've been doing 100 words challenge. We needed to pick a topic that we would like to write about, there're 12 topics to choose from. I'm going to share with you what I wrote about. The topic that I wrote about is my favourite things. 

Here's my writing

My Favourite things

The first thing I like doing is to play with my friends, the second thing I like doing is to play video games. I often play games on my phone or watch something on Youtube but sometimes I watch anime. Also, I like to play sports with my friends because It’s much more fun to play. I also like to play competitive sports such as athletics because It challenges me. My favourite athletics options are Shot put, High Jump, Discus, and 100m & 200m Sprints. My favourite sports are Basketball, Volleyball, and Badminton however, I often play basketball more than the other sports. 

Themed Bells

 Greetings Everyone, 

Today I'm going to talk about our school Themed bells. It basically means our school bell songs. Each time the bell rings. Also, every month is a different theme and different song every. This weeks song is about All She Wrote and It's also a Pop Genre. In my opinion, the songs are all about people singing in the car and grinding around New Zealand. 

Six60's members are Matiu Walters, Chris Mac, Ji Fraser, Marlon Gerbes, Eli Paewai, Hoani Matenga. The six60 formed a band in Dunedin and they created their band name as their street number, 660 Castle Street. Also, In my opinion, I like our Themed bells, as It changed the main theme every month and changed the song every week.

Term 1 Reflection

Greetings Everyone,

Today I'm going to share with you my reflection last term. Many things happened last term and so I'm going to share what I have enjoyed the most. Also, I'm going to share what are my goals for this term.

The first thing I like doing is hanging out with my friends. Secondly is playing sports on my Hurumanu 6 subject, which is PE. Thirdly, I do maths in Hurumanu 3 because the questions are really challenging and make me answer the question. Especially when I don't really know the questions. Lastly, I like the Kai foods because It's really delicious and It keeps my stomach full.

All Huruamanu classes really make me challenge myself, especially Hurumanu 3 which is a Maths class. Writing classes also make it challenging because I'm not really good at writing and I'm slow at writing.

My goals for term 2 is to finish my work in time. Also, Come to school on time.
