Conserving in Auckland

We have been talking about conserving water, this relates to our Inquiry Topic " water care "  or in Maori Te Taiao o Tamaki .  We are using our learning to help other understand how important it is to save water in Auckland at the moment. I also added images to show a comparison of the water treatment plants ( a clean , healthy ,  flowing treatment plant and a dirty, abounded treatment plant). Us Aucklanders have to save at least 20 litres of water everyday. 

Most Valuable Player - Cricket

This week Wednesday we had our cricket inter-school. I was in Panmure Bridge A . We versed different schools from our manaiakalani cluster such as Tamaki Primary, Point England School and Glen innes. The teams were quite tough but we had one win and 3 loses. I received the Most Valuable Player in my team. I am really proud that I got this award not for myself but for my team school as well. 

Head Girl Badge

Today I received my " Head Girl 2017 badge " . It has our school logo as well as our full name. I feel really proud that I got my badge this year because it represents my intelligence as Head Girl and my leadership.  I will definitely be wearing the badge every single school day.  

Puzzler

Today we revised our , ordering decimals. This was quite easy considering that I have already played the game.  It's easy because you just have to look at the whole number if there is an whole number or the decimal number. I hope we get to have more games like this as it tries to make it more challenging. 

Tech @ Tamaki College

Today at Tech in our food technology we made Quiche. Since this was quite easy considering we made little smaller version last week. I got to prepare our fillings and my partner that helped me was mishaan. The fillings were bacon, cheese, onion and cream cheese it seemed simple but it was really good. It was a long process of steps but we finally made our quiche. 

Greatest Common Factor

Today in our maths session we had to find a game that related to the topic Greatest Common Factor.  It was quite hard to find a suitable game for your working because there were so many to choose from. Luckily I found a game that fitted perfect with what I was trying to work on. It gave me levels to fit with my learning. I started with level 1 and made my way up. I hope I improve in Common Factors because I need a lot of work on it. 

Water testing

The student leaders went down to Johnson reserve to test our local waterway we had to see if it was healthy or unhealthy.  It was a long process of testing if it was clean or dirty but we got a positive 8 on our ph test. This means that it is healthy and flowing. The sign that it isn't healthy is when it's stagnant this means that it isn't flowing. My favourite was when we did the  Ph test because we got to match the colours to the results.
