Our Change experiments and activities

Our major topic this term has been CHANGE.
We have had heaps of fun doing lots of experiments, making , watching, talking and thinking about what we have done.
 Can you see the jelly and the popcorn we made, the invisible writing we tried, the butter we made from cream, the ice cream ingredients, the hokey pokey that showed us how geothermal activity changes and the car ramps we enjoyed building?

Kawaha Point Cross Country


Space 13 all persevered and finished the school Cross Country course.
 Kia kaha, kia maia Space 13.
Layne enjoyed his time at the cross country and would like to share his day at the event.
                                    CROSS COUNTRY
     
      RUN.  RUN.  RUN.
    
    Today was Cross Country.  I was nervous at 
    first.
     When it was our turn they said, "on your 
     mark get set, go." 
     It was fun. I was tired so I stopped.
     Even though I didn't come first, I still
      tried.
                           Kia manawanui, Layne
      

Kawaha Point Cross Country
Cody also had a great time and will share his day at the event.

 
    ZOOM! Today, June 6th, it was Cross Country.
    I versed the 8 year olds. We raced at the Reserve.
    “On your marks, get set.” CLAP!!
    I started a bit slow but I sped up very quickly in to 6th place.  
    Yay!  I passed one kid.
    Yay!  I passed another kid.
    “Wow! I can’t believe that I’m in 4th place.”
    One lap and I was tired out, but I kept on going.
    I passed two more kids. 
    “Awesome, two places!   I’m on fire!  Ow, I’ve got the stitch big time."        
    YAY! I came second.
I feel more awesome than EVER.

                                                              Kia kaha, Cody
