Samoa Language Week

This week was Samoan Language Week. In Room 6 we learnt a lot about Samoa and the Samoan culture. We watched Cultural Hub clips about the Samoan alphabet, animals and body parts. Did you know that the Samoan alphabet has only 17 letters? Also during reading time we did a scavenger phrases, our experts were Matila, Remy and Rosa.












The white star's on the flag represents the southern cross constellation. The blue represents freedom and red is representative of courage and bravery.

Year 6 Netball Game

On Wednesday this week we had a netball game, the game started at 4:55. Before the game started we did some warm ups, we did some shuttle runs, wagon wheel, and some drills. When the game was finished we found out who won. It was us, the Thunder Birds team! We won 11-7, we were so happy that we won.

Science In A Van

This term the whole school went inside the hall to go see science in a van! We had two visitor's teaching us about science. What we  learnt about was  the elements of the  periodic table and even did a couple of experiments, we had also learnt about balance and how to balance a broom with only two fingers!  We had so much fun with science in van but we had to end.

Sign Language Week

This term we had visitor's to Good Shepherd School!  The whole school was about learn sign language!  One of the visitor's did sign language because she was deaf and so there was a translator for us to understand what she was saying in sign language.  So many kids put up their hand to ask some questions of how to do a certain word in sign language.  It was so fun learning sign language but then we had to say goodbye, so we finished.

Growth Mindset

In Rm 6 last term we have been focusing and researching on one of the greatest leaders, we putted a lot of effort and information into our work. Rosa Parks stoop for the civil rights of racism and even had a really hard time in her childhood she had to go through racism and so she had to quit high school because her grandma was sick and so she had to quit high school. I chose Rosa Parks because she never gave up and even though she went into jail and went out of jail she still stood up for the civil rights of racism.
