This term we are working on an individual novel study. I chose the book Mortal engines. Here is one of the twenty novel study activities. So far I am really enjoying this book.

West Coast Athletics.

On Wednesday we had West Coast Athletics. We walked to the athletics ground. We then got into our age groups. I participated in the 1200 metres and discus. first we had the running which I did and came 3rd, which is pretty good. Although to qualify for Canterbury it is top 2. I then did discus and also came 3rd. I was happy with what I came but I will try hard next time. 

Movie Review

Yesterday we had the first film festival for children at the Regent Theatre. We took a bus down to the theatre and sat as a school. Then Paroa and Kumara joined us in the theatre. We then watched the movies one by one. They were pretty good for kids. Although some were done by kids and some were done by adults. One even had drone footage! There was a range skills used to create these movies such as green screen, drone footage, digital movie creating, go pro and just the ordinary phone or i-pad. Some of the movies were good and some of them needed some tweaking. Overall I enjoyed this experience.

Japan

For topic we are learning japanese with Mrs Gully. We had to make a presentation of some things in Japan. Here is mine.
