Wearable Arts

On the 3rd~4th August the Wearable Arts was held at the Ngaio Marsh theatre.
Rm 10 performed in the category man made NZ. In our dance we showed different figures being made and at the end we made the 2 letter NZ. We fell like domino's and we were supposed to have glow sticks but Paulette took them to Australia so we couldn't use them.

My Costume group modeled in the category Natural NZ.
We got out of tune in the gumboot song but kapahaka was fine( wasn't out of tune!!!)
And at the very end Mrs Gordon got a bouquet of flowers.
Obviously Room 10's dance was the best though.

Wearable Arts

I think that our class went really well with the wearable arts. At the end we did the NZ and when I saw a photo of it I thought it looked really cool. My mum also said that when we did the movements at the start with our arms she said we did it really boldly and we did it at the same time.

My Google Doodle

I chose to do my Google Doodle in Koru's. I chose Koru's because that is a maori design that we only have in New Zealand. I have made a big Koru run through all the letters and a few little ones inside the letters. In Google, I chose the L to make into a bog Koru.

Town hall Choir

At town hall Choir our teacher is Miss Kincaid. We sing funny, exciting and odd songs. Most of the girls don't want to do it, but in my defence I kind of like it. But EVERYONE from the north west choir HAS to be in it and I like north west choir WAAAAAAAAY better!!!!!

Google Doodle!!!

Google Doodle s a competition that the whole of room 10 are entering.
Sadly only 8 people from each school are allowed and their are already four classes entering.
Google Doodle is a competition for kids all over Aotearoa to enter.
Have you ever seen not just the normal GOOGLE logo but it has a cool design in it for special days of the year.
Well now it is the chance for kiwi kids to have a go at getting their cool and arty design on the GOOGLE start page.
The prize if you are the lucky winner is of coarse getting your design on the GOOGLE start page for 24 hours,A LAPTOP!!!!(i need a laptop)a interactive white board for your class and tons of equipment for your school!!!
I have entered my GOOGLE design quite basic as Mount Cook and a fern right next to the "L".
I am crossing my fingers in the hope of winning the awsome Competition GOOGLE DOODLE!!!

Bullying

This week (week 4, term 3) we have been talking about bully's. We have had sessions on bullying we recently have been doing a bully survey so people at our school can feel safer as the bully's are being dealt with. Just this morning we talked about how it makes you feel if you are being bullied and how bad it is just to watch them getting bullied and not helping them. My opinion is its sickening watch them and not helping and when people run off crying its sad. Some kids in our class feel that they're going to be a bit embarrassed when they say something and scared that others will laugh. I still cant believe that bullying is happening at Fendalton.

Well done guys!

I have been so proud of our class over the last few days. We have had so much going on - Wearable Arts, Cycle Safety, ICAS tests, Sports tournaments........and yet, everyone has kept a sense of humour, looked after each other, and put in their top effort in everything they've done.

Congratulations to each and everyone in Room 10 for their performance and effort, especially in the Wearable Arts. I have felt very privileged to be a part of it!
