Tech Switch Over

Today was the day that the year 7's and 8's switched over to a different activity at Tamaki College. The year 7 students had Mr Pineda's class 'Graphics' which was our previous class. The year 8's including myself, went with Mr Grundy's 'Workshop' and our topic is currently glass. Before we get started Mr Grundy WARNED us about what would happen if we didn't follow the rules with respect. Mr Grundy has strict rules but are very safe. The first thing was drawing our designs. My favourite sketch was a castle.

Orienteering

We have orienteering every Tuesday, our guider or teacher, was Mr Leon and he showed us a few symbols on the map of our school. On the first day, Mr Leon gave us all a clip card. All clip cards were unique because they each had different numbers. It was a bit tricky at first because the clippers were not alphabetical order. The same day, we all walked around the school with maps. Sadly people had their maps taken off of them because it was not facing North. The next week, Mr Leon came back and handed us all a clip card and a map. We had to clip the card by using the map to find our destination.

🌺 Performance: Pasifika Study 🌺

Today after our morning break we had a assembly for the Pasifika study. Each class has their own item to present front of the entire school. Our class persented a song called "How Far I'll Go" by Alessia Cara (from Moana). Some of the other class performance was dancing, singing and Cat Walk.
