Class Data

For maths this week we have been using data squares to learn about our class. Here is a post by Brooklyn in Class 6.


I predict that the girls would mostly like Drunk  in love than  Trumpets.
I predict that the boys would mostly like Trumpets than Rap god.
I predict that the girls would mostly like to sing than dance.
I predict that the boys would mostly like to sing than karate.


I found out that more people  in the classroom like the song trumpets than drunk in love.
I found out that only one person in the classroom liked Rap god.
                                                         I found out that more people in the classroom like to sing.
                                                      I found out that only two people in the classroom like to do karate.

Holiday Highlights

In class this week we have been blogging about some of the highlights from our holidays.  Here is a post by Stevenson in class 6.


Waiting for my friends, Collin and Tai, I listened to music. It took a long time to pick me up but they eventually did. I was exhausted with the long drive that I nearly fell asleep. Finally we had arrived at the beautiful Parakai Springs at a time of 12:00! Entering the pools my friends and I waited in the que to pay for our entry fee. After paying Collin, Tai and I sprinted off to the hydroslide.


“WOOHOO!” We screamed while we slid down the twisty and tourney slide. Running back with my friends we slid down again, continuously. It was fantastic! It was a rough time of 4:00 so my friend, Tai’s, mum decided to leave Parakai. Tai and Collin sang the songs that were playing in the car while I fell asleep. We drove safely back home.

Experiencing Parakai Springs was awesome. I loved the slide the most as it had twist and turns.
