Technology Wood Works by Nurul

The first day of technology, wood works we had to draw 8 main ideas of the things we wanted to make and the drawing must have a joint.

My first idea was a race car, my second idea was a school bus. I had drawn over 44 ideas and I disliked them all but the ones I really liked were the train, bird,  house, dispenser, helicopter, pull along tray, and a piano. I chose to do a piano because it looked incredible and I feel happy that I finally finished drawing what I want to make. 

My Two Books I Got At Syndicate Assembly-By Storm

I had been chosen to go up and choose two books and the name of the two books I chose was The Ghost Light and The New Girl. I chose those books because they looked and sounded interesting. . I was nervous because as soon as they chose me, I had a numb foot and whenever you have numb feet its means you have pins and needles and that makes you kind of walk like a penguin or cricket which is really embarrassing.  I was extremely nervous and I even had to take a picture.

Daffodil Day by Storm

Today we had Daffodil Day.

Daffodil Day is to support the people who have cancer. We supported cancer by fundraising to help the people who research the disease find a cure for those people with cancer to maybe live for an extra  day or maybe even for the rest of their life.

Later we made paper daffodils and I asked Mrs Vickers how much money we made  today and she said, "$73." I was like WOW!
That is amazing that we are going to definitely give that to the people with cancer.

Speeches by Sosiua

Speeches are coming up. I don't want to go up on stage because it horrifies me that everyone is going to be sitting there just staring at me. It'll be so embarrassing if I do something wrong. I just don't think I have the skills and potential to do it, but I have to because everyone has to do one and who knows I might be picked for the finals.

School Assembly by Storm

On Monday we had our assembly for term two. To start off we had the NZ anthem, karakia and our school song. 

All teachers had to choose one learner  from their class to get a Duffy Award while Mrs Vickers was reading out information from her  interesting neon orange paper. As the students chose one book each we all started clapping. Room Twelve's student was Katrina, who is the head prefect. She had chosen a book called 'Logan Likes Mary Anne'. 

After that Mrs Pederson came up and gave us an impressive talk. She had told us she sang the Australian NZ anthem at the Anzac ceremony she went to. I said in my mind, ''I just studied something like that.''  

Later Mrs Vickers said her last word and said we were over our limit and it was almost time to leave school.
