Disco Fever

On Wednesday 22 June the Ivan Atkin Hall was transformed into a "Weird and Wacky" disco experience DJed by the extremely wacky Mr P, complete with full leg splint.


He and Whaea Ngaere created an awesome night for us to dance, scream with our friends, eat junk food after dinner.... basically have lots of fun!


Dark, atmospheric lighting means some of the photos are a bit grainy or poor quality! Sorry!



BOY POWER!

Students as Experts

At the end of last term Mrs Hanley and Mrs Hunter set us a challenge for homework.  We were to create ‘expert’ presentations to share with the class. They had to make use of ICT tools, would have us sharing something we enjoyed or knew a bit about.  We are still sharing our presentations but have already enjoyed learning about longboarding, spin bowling, Rugby World Cup history, chocolate making, tennis and lots of other things.

Below are a couple of films that were shared as part of this challenge.  Lachie had us laughing with his cool animations. Geena got us speaking a bit of Spanish and completing a crossword to show we understood some of the words she shared.  Daniel blew us away with his movie about the game ‘Spore’ of which he is an expert.... Enjoy!
