City Rail Link Art


As part of an art class with Miss Down we created images that will be displayed in the country’s busiest rail station, once it opens to the public in 2023/2024.
These images will be used and turned in a ceramic tile and display within the station.

Inspirational heroes


During reading we have been researching people who have faced challenges and have stood up for what they believed in. They have either been a voice for those that don't have one or are a person who never gave up when facing challenges.

My Person is Martin Luther King Jr.

Come visit Room 6 to check out my flip presentation of Martin Luther King Jr.

The Crazy Robot

I am learning to: create a narrative based on a image.

As Jeff came home from school he was exhausted. Studying was his least favourite thing in high school. Jeff ran to his room and slammed the door behind him. His room was as messy as a monsters cave. Jeff knew it was time to clean his room and make some arrangements, but he was so tired he wasn’t even thinking about his science project! He knew he had to make space to build it because he needed to make it fast

Finally Jeff’s room was as spotless as a princess palace.There were boxes everywhere with cables and wires and all electronic stuff that was in many other boxes. Jeff was so glad he had cleaned his room. He found everything he had lost. As Jeff was in the middle of homework he realised that he had to do his science project! As quick as a cheater Jeff got out all the wires and cables and all the electronic stuff out of the boxes.

As a thinker like Jeff he started to mend a giant robot. Jeff got every electronic battery and cables and all other things,and started to mend his robot. Finally Jeff’s robot was ready, although he needed something that was missing Jeff realised it was the colour of the robot. At the backyard he went inside his stepfather’s shed to look for any paint and all he found was a rotten red inside a drawer. ‘Oh well’ thought Jeff at least it’s a colour. Off he went to his bedroom to paint his robot.

“Phew” noise’s came from Jeff’s mouth as he finished ten layers of the paint. The robot looked like he came out of a makeup room.But something was missing the remote control. Jeff got his battery and cables and started to invent his very first invented remote.

‘Knock! Knock!Knock’ Oh no! Jeff knew it was the shillabers every afternoon they would come inside his room and mess it up. They would wreck all his things and Jeff thought if the shillabers came inside his room he thought they might ruin his science project! Jeff was terrified he and the shillabers were cousins they were quite annoying they wanted everything from Jeff’s room. They had broken his popcorn maker in little pieces. Jeff made and it got wrecked. Jeff ran downstairs to his mum and said “ Mum please do not let the shillabers come inside because right now I’m concentrating on my science project”, “ Okay Jeff off you go to your room and I will tell them that you are gone to your basketball game” answered mum.

“Yay”! Screamed Jeff . Jeff was sleeping in his room. Awhile ago Jeff heard whirring noises from his room. He was to scared of the sound affects coming from his room,Jeff didn’t move a muscle he knew he wouldn’t go out of bed but the whirring noise became louder and louder, “That’s it I’m going to my cupboard and see what the noise is from” said Jeff scared. As slow as a snail Jeff heard creak noises from his cupboard and oh no Jeff found that his robot was destroyed and now his science project was definitely ruined. Tears came down of Jeff’s eye’s. The next day Jeff had to take out the rubbish bin outside the front so he had to chuck away his dream robot he has been making all along for his science fair. “What’s going on Jeff”, Jeff heard admiring voices coming from the rubbish bin jeff took a closer look and look what he found he had found his robot but Jeff have had no wonder why he was still alive.

Cyber Safety



Room 6 has been learning about cyber safety We have learnt a lot about being a digital citizen here are three key rules that I think are important:
1. Be careful of what you post on the internet.  All information and images leave a digital footprint.
2.Never share your personal details such as full name, age, address and passwords with any people, even those who say they know you.
3.Be nice! No one likes a digital bully.  Be respectful and be a great digital citizen.
