Tekoteko Art

Every Friday Mr Reid teaches us art skills or something to do with art.

For the past few weeks we have been focusing on our tekoteko. If you don't know what a tekoteko is, it is a Maori carved figure that is normally on a roof of a Marae to show greetings to new people and family members of the Marae. 

We have now all finally done the tekoteko and ready to move on to Samoan and Tongan designs. I am so happy to move on.

General knowledge is things that are so important. They are facts that are also interesting.

School Assembly Led By Room 12

On Monday the 18th of February we had assembly lead by room 12.

We sat in our individual classes, which is our normal routine. Then we sang our national anthem, karakia and our school song. After that we had one person from each class that has achieved to come up and get a book. There were heaps of kids.

In the end when our assembly was up we all went to go pick up our hats from outside and went back to our class. I was happy because my feet had pins and needles.

Room 9 Team Assembly

On Monday the 11th of March, Room 9 led the syndicate assembly.

The assembly was fun, they played a game called Maths bang, where two students from each class challenged  each other.

There were two songs. One of them was Don't Give It Up and the next was Stand By Me. At the end of the assembly we all gave a special clap to Room 9 for the effort they put into their awesome hosting skills.

Cyber-smart 2019 Passwords

Today we are writing about Cyber-smart. If you don't know what that is, it is a site where you can pick one thing that you want to write about and you have to explain what it is, I chose passwords.

The reason I chose passwords is because some people's accounts are getting hacked. They're giving out there password to random people. If you're going to give your account out make sure you are able to actually trust them and not just give it to them and to give it to someone you have had a good communication with. Make sure to have a secure password.
