Term Two!!

Wow!! What a full on Term we had!! At the end of Term One we said our farewells to Mrs Patterson and welcomed Miss Meredith.

We spent the term getting to know each other and working on our classroom environment, which is now running very smoothly! 

In Mathematics we learnt all about statistics and now even know the average score for the All Blacks vs Australia games since 2009 - How cool is that?

We read about some pretty cool topics too! Like how to make C02 cars (watch this space) and how Mummies are made, sorry folks - we won’t be putting that information into practice!!

For writing and topic we learnt how to write different types of articles and reviews. We even created our own magazine!!! It’s pretty cool if I do say so myself.. The articles were well written and the display was fantastic - You should all be very very proud of yourselves, I know I am!

We also had plenty of other exciting events to keep us very very busy!!

We had the Book Fair and Book Character day, which some of us dressed up for. There were some very cool costumes. 

Huge congratulations to our Year 7 and 8 Tackle Rugby Teams who took out the Thames Valley competition. A special well done to Hayley for getting player of the day!

We also had teams compete in the BP Tech Challenge which we came third in. The Inter-schools Maths Challenge, which we came first equal for the Year 8's. And Kayley and Shakahn also came first in the Ngatea Intermediate Chess Challenge.  Phew what a Term full of achievements! Well done!!

Last but not least, we were lucky enough to have the Ranfurly Shield visit us - Check out our latest class photo.

Wow what a jam packed Term Two we had. Somehow I think Term Three will be just as busy!! 

Miss Meredith.
