Favourite thing I did at school.

Hello there world. This blog post is about my favourite moment in school, so cheer up😎! One of my favourite things I liked this year was badminton. Badminton is a sport that is like tennis and volleyball. I really liked it because we did a lot of competitions in this sport. Here are some photos of when we were there:











Another thing I liked about the school year was the Gala day. As you know I already wrote about it but I will still put some photos on. The dancing was great, lots of people came, and we earned enough money to make a new playground!








Thank you for reading this blog post. I wish you enjoyed it!

Put your thinking hats on!🎩

Hello there blogging world, in the past 2 weeks we have been asked to complete a slide about the Waiowhai Primary gala day That was held 2 weeks ago. The slide show we did was about thinking hats🎩, which is when you describe different emotions and what you did on the day. Ohhh, I forgot to tell you! In the gala day we earned $13,400. What a good job! because we sold lots of stuff and because many people came, this was a success! Here is my slide show of the thinking hats:



What I have learnt: I have learnt to reflect and think more deeply about my experiences from the school gala day. Thank you for reading this blog post and I'll see ya later! ; )

Gala day preparations.

Hello there bloggers! How's your day? In the last couple of weeks we have been working on Soap For our school gala coming up. Just before we proceed, we are raising money for making a new playground for the juniors, since they don't have a playground anymore. Yes, our class made soap for the gala. We got in groups and picked a soap we liked to make. We chose goats milk soap. The process was super easy. We first microwaved some goats milk and glycerin. After that we put together the goats milk and glycerine. Then we added some essence to add a smell.
We mixed for a while and added them to silicone moulds. If you want to go to the gala you're more than welcome! Here are some photos of the soap we (Waitemata) have made:





We also made ads. Ads to attract people to our school gala. We first had to plan it out on a small paper, then once the teacher was convinced, we draw it on the BIG PAPER! Yes, it is really that big. After we drew everything, we used a permanent marker to outline. After all that work, we still need to colour with pastel. UUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Then, at last we would show the teacher. Here is my poster I have made:

What I liked about it: I liked that we were doing this for the Juniors, as we were helping them earn some money. What I didn't like: Pastel covering my hands with colours!!!

My math journey.

Hello there bloggers! hows your day? In the past week our amazing teacher (Mr Ross) gave us a task about maths budgeting. He explained that you are in a journey around New Zealand and you have to try spend less than $500 each day. Your trip is 11 days long. When we started this I was so excited. He said sometimes you can sleep in a hotel or a camper van if you hired one. You also had to do activities every single day. In one of these slides it says to solve how much money you will spend on petrol and how long does it take to get there. Here is an example of my petrol cost. It tells you how many km it takes to get there:


This was quite easy because Mr Ross said we could use a calculator!Hehe!








The last slide was the hardest, adding up all the numbers together. It took me about 3 mins to solve!







What I have learnt: I have learnt which hotels were expensive and what camper vans are cheaper. Maybe I'll go to a trip and remeber these two things!

Thanks for reading this blog post and I'll see ya later!

Magical world of crazy science!

🍩Hello there Bloggers. There is this amazing person who came to visit our school. You know who it is? It's Richard and Robyn!! They do science experiments and magic tricks. It was so cool! They came to visit our school🏫, and showed us some crazy science. We learnt what chemistry was, chemistry is the study of chemicals. Chemicals power things like rockets. Chemical reactions happen when you mix 2 things or more together, and changes the state. Water is the only substance on earth that exists in liquid, solid and gas. We also learnt about physics. Richard got a hair dryer and a ping pong ball. he turned the hair dryer on and put the ball on top of it. The ball started to float. He told us that when there is fast moving air it goes up. Gravity pulls it down, that's why it stays in the middle, floating. he also did a little firework. He used some grain and fire. He put a tiny bit of the grain while the fire was on, and then there was this great amazing flame of fire! The rest will be in the videos:
 The science show was amazing! I learnt about chemistry and physics, and magic! I really want to learn how to do these things. If you have any questions, please tell me in the comments down below. Bye!
My questions now are:
How do people do magic?
Is science important for the world?
How can magicians do unpredictable things?
Are there still different types of bacteria's not known yet?
Can scientists change the world?
