Noah writing now......

Well we went to carncott and we did a thing with questions with a,b,c and d and then we went outside and did the practicel stuff, which is what i"m good at. it was mostly the same as what we did in class except a bit harder. There was a tennis ball thing that was swervy two balls 30cm apart and there was two really tight U turns.

Cycle Training

We have been lucky enough to have constable Sue and Constable Emily come in and teach us about cycle safety. We have been learning road rules and practicing on an obstacle course. Important things to remember are:

- Always look over your right shoulder for traffic
- Make sure your signals are clear and visible
- Practise your balance skills on your bike so you are ready for the road

Georgia and Zoe - Ad for Burger Fresh

Term 3, Week 7


Burger Fresh at Senior Market Day was a big sucsess and we made $940!!!
It was hard work but it was definitely worth it.

The other Seinor Classes had their own buissness's as well and with all the money put together each class can get about 2 ipod touches.
Awesome!!!

(If you scroll down a bit you can see some adverts LC10 made for burger fresh.)


Paper Spinner for Burger Fresh


Goal : Make 6 each using a creative design

It was snowing this week. It was so exciting.
LC10 made snowmen and had snowball fights.
We all made poems about our snow experience. We dressed paper snowmen in fabrics and put them on the wall next to our snow poems.
LC10 is working on our Burger Fresh proccedure lines and have decided to have a combo meal and put a toy with it.

This week lc10 have been using instruments to come up with a cool jingle so more people can hear about our burger fresh inquiry. Its in the hall and its like subway but burger fresh. You choose your own fillings to go in a bun and the whole class has there own job like a assembly line. People are going to pay us real money. We are going to use the money to buy cool things to stay in the senior team for us all to play with. They will be things like ipod touches and maybe an ipad. I cant wait!!!
We have also been designing logo designs for burger fresh. The best design gets 100 snidges to spend at Quiddage! There are some really good ones!

Mr Bron has added a new activity to SDL (self directed learning) The activity is an extra follow up task and each week Mr Bron gives us a new cool activity to complete. The tasks are things like make a poster about the book your reading group is reading or to make a booklet about your book. I will post some of our work next week. There are some cool completed tasks out there.

Hi, welcome back from your 2 week, term 2 holiday!

Here is a list of things people have been doing:
Eden went to Auckland in the holidays.
Kaitlyn's family sold their house and brought a new one.
Harley went to Hamilton and saw Transformers 3.
Georgia went to the snow.

For maths we are doing volume & capacity. We have been measuring with different size containers and measuring spoons.

This term we are focusing on our Reading rotations a lot more because for the last 2 terms we focused on maths heaps! Mr Bron says if we do something for a long time and lots of it, we will learn a lot better. Reading rotations are really cool now.

We now have Mackenzie joining in doing the blog as well as Georgia and Paige.

There was a Fear Factor stall, drink stalls, a kebab stall, a stall with raffles, dart board comp and a lucky dip, a stall with a guessing game, a dance comp and a drawing comp. Mr Bron even had a raffle which was for 50 snidge and you could win 500 snidge if you won. ( Corban won that.)
