Then our parents were here to pick us up, I had alot of fun at Graduation, Thank Mr Grady, Mrs Berk, Ms Kirkpatrick and Mrs Anderson for organizing all of that for us.

2016 Life at PBS

This is a collage of my life at Panmure Bridge School, this collage shows what I have done this year in LS2. I've made my own collage using google drawing, it has different shapes, colorful background, and the width of the borders. In this collage I have included some photos from Term 1 all the way to Term 4. This year has been a very busy year, but we managed to get through it all. At the start of the year I was really shy and so was the others, as the year went through I was getting more confident. When I look back at this I will remember how much I have had at PBS. I have enjoyed being at PBS, and Thank you to Mrs Anderson, Miss Naiker, Miss Donaldson, Miss Kirkpatrick etc, for teaching me this year. 

Labyrinth - Charlize, Maata, Afu

Yesterday LS2 went over to the theatre to watch a movie called Labyrinth. We filled in these documents Ms. Kirkpatrick sent us. As you can see our activities we worked on as a group of four are here above. The people in my group was Victoria, Cecillia, and Te Paki. As you can here you can also see our DLO we made, included in this DLO is narrative structure, Character intro, and our favorite part of the movie. My favorite part was when Sarah saved her brother Toby and they returned home safel.y

Rockets at Tamaki College

We have had a amazing couple of days at Tamaki College. We would like to say a huge thank you to Mrs Ferguson and Mr Dunn for having us again. We all enjoyed blowing up the rockets because it was a fun experiment and everyone had fun. It was really great to see how far our rockets went. Some of our rockets went faring then other's I think this because of our adjustments. We had a drone that had a camera on it & it was controlled by the I pad that is in Mrs Ferguson. It look really fun to controll.

Tahuna Torea - Afu

Yesterday LS2, LS1, and room 5 went to Tahuna Torea as our topic for inquiry has been flight and Godwit, so we went to see if we could find any Godwit's. In this DLO you will see what we have been doing

Then Ms Kirkpatrick shared a Google presentation to us to make our predictions. Then we had to make our straw rockets, then we had to do fair testing with our straw rockets. Then we recorded our results on this google slides. On this google slides it has what I predicted, my results, the Method, and a conclusion. I had fun doing science with Mr Dunn. 

Science: Rockets - Afu

Last week on Friday all the yr 7 and yr 8's went over to Tamaki college for tech, after tech we did science with Mr Dunn. Mr Dunn showed us a couple of videos about rockets, and he showed us a video about how to make a straw rocket. When we finished watching the video we had to get into groups, my group was Sakae, Breeana, Charlize, Jorja, and Maata. We had to predict what will happen to our rocket.Then we had to make our own straw rockets, we got to pieces of straw, tape, and wings. When we made our straw rocket we had to use the straw to blow the rocket,we had to do fair testing, we done that three times, then we had to add wings then fly it three times, then we had to add our last wings then fly it three times. Then we got to make real rockets, we did not get enough time to make so we are going to make it this week. We went outside to the field to see Mr Dunn's rocket fly, it went really high. Then Mr Dunn flew Ms Ferguson's 3d carrot rocket. It went to the sky but we did not see it come down, then we had to go back to the class room and pack up, then go back to school. I had fun at Tamaki College making rockets, Thank you Mr Dunn.
