Term 4 DLO Project! Make It Work

This term for inquiry we have been focusing on technology and we have been creating a project, we have also been creating a DLO video to go along with our projects. Our question we asked ourselves was: What could we create to improve life here at Point England School? 

 

Throughout creating this project we had some difficulties, we were meant to create a bean bag but we couldn’t find a material stretchy enough to make a bean bag cover because if it wasn’t stretchy enough it would burst. So we ended up creating a miniature model of a McDonalds! 

 

The captain of our group was Lynch and our co-captain was Hailey. And the members of our group were Lynch, Hailey, Manaia, Brooke, Ciannah and Te Manahi. 

 

Our Highlight was having the opportunity to create something and cooperate with our friends to create a project. And our lowlight was filming in clips we didn’t want to be a part of but we had to because we were all a part of the group. 

 

In conclusion we all enjoyed our term 4 inquiry topic and had a great time creating our projects even if they didn’t work out and go as planned.

Rainbows end trip

                      Rainbows end

On Tuesday the 21st of November the year 7s of pt england school went to Rainbows end for a end of year celebration of 2023.

In the morning after our short team assembly the year 8s went off while the year 7s stayed and we went in our groups. At 9:15 everyone went on the buses and we drove to rainbow’s end. Once we got there, there was a person that showed us where to go, after he showed us we ended up at the front of the rainbows end and a lady that worked there told us about it. After each class stood up and got our wristbands, a while later everyone got into their groups and went to the people that were looking after us. The first ride my group went on was the Stratosfear extreme. My favourite ride was the Stratosfear extreme my second favourite was the power surge and my least favourite was the fear fall

The first ride I went on was Stratosfear then lazer tag then the family carts, after that we went to bumper cars, log flume, Spectra, roller coaster, Invader, Power surge, then we went on the family
