This term’s Year 7 topic was ‘The Nutty Professor’. We had to find an experiment, test it out and present it to the school with display boards. Three adults and some secret students judged our Science Fair projects. We enjoyed carrying out the experiments and displaying our scientific research and thinking.
A group travelled to Samoa to represent our school. Before they left they showed us what they would be doing. This included a ‘Fiafia Night’ to help the fund raise money for the trip to Samoa. We also had a Mufti day where a voluntary contribution of two dollars could be donated towards the trip.
A Year 7 and Year 8 after school netball team played in a graded tournament. The Year 7 team never lost a game! They were presented with a trophy for winning the Grade D section.
We also had four rugby teams representing us. They were the over 55s and under 55s boys team. There is also an Open Grade girls rugby team and under 55s girls team. Our Open Grade girls have done well, making it to the finals. We are all as happy as larks!
Each Monday we have taken part in an exciting new dance exercise session called Zumba. The instructor’s name was Yvonne. We were all thrilled and pumped. During the session we heard some of our favourite music.
In math we have been learning about percentages, fractions, decimals, geometry, and measurement. We also have a new teacher because our teacher is with the group that has gone to Samoa. Her name is Miss Bell. We have learnt heaps more thinking strategies and ways to improve our standards with her.
