Website work...

Hello blogging world! A few weeks ago the whole senior syndicate came together and decided to create a presentation, about our inquiry. Everyone first had to start off with asking questions and answering them, then after we had to choose any type of way to create the presentation, I chose to do a website because I wanted to try something new! It was really fun making this google site and exploring new things. Under this text is my presentation, it is all about Keas!

This is my home page click on the photo for the link or, just click on the link above the picture, there is also a video when I was saying my speech and going through my site. From making this website I learnt how to use google sites, how to resize images and how to embed links onto this website. Next time maybe I should try make more sub pages than normal pages because, there are 13 pages and 1 sub page! Overall this whole activity was really fun. I hoped you guys have enjoyed this and would leave a positive, thoughtful and helpful comment. Bye! Bye! Blogging world!

How to make a good blog comment!

Hello blogging world! Last week in cybersmart we learnt how to make a good blog comment and what you need to make sure to have a good comment. We first had to go to the cybersmart page and file a slide. The slide has lots of different suggestions to make a quality comment. You have to use these, a greeting to introduce yourself, something positive about it, something thoughtful and helpful. I really enjoyed this task because there was an acronym that we had to do in the last slide. If you don't know what an acronym is, you have come to the right blog post, so it is basically a word that will remind you, how to make a quality blog post or anything else you want to remember, if you don't know what it will look like just go to slide 9.



From making this slide I have learnt what a acronym is and why it is useful to remember things. I hoped that you have enjoyed this blog post and learnt more things about a quality blog comment. Please feel free to leave a positive, thoughtful and helpful comment down below to help improve my work! Thank you for reading this. Bye! Bye! Blogging world!

Minecraft work!

Hello blogging world! Last week as a whole Senior Syndicate everyone made any Minecraft character. I really liked making my Minecraft character because I like playing Minecraft. We used a spreadsheet to make our Minecraft characters because you can resize the columns and rows. It was quite difficult to resize them but I got the hang of it. Everyone had a really cool character. Under this text is my character!
 This is my link!                   

There is a link on the picture if you click on it. This is tiny but I can't fix it. From making this Minecraft character I learnt how to make the boxes smaller or bigger. This was also a maths activity. Maybe next time I could add some shoes to my Minecraft character and have my character more detailed. I hope that you have enjoyed my Minecraft character and will also get inspired to make this. Please feel free to leave a positive, thoughtful and helpful comment to help improve my blog posts! Bye! Bye! Blogging world!

Crazy but mad science!!!

Hello blogging world! Today part of the school participated in a crazy science show! This show was called "The Nexus Science Show." Everyone saw a waterfall of magic tricks they have never seen before in their lives! 
                         
I really loved watching this show, my favourite part about it was that when he said, he would set a firework in the hall, I was really shocked because it actually looked like a real firework in the air! I also loved it when Richard the scientist used a hair dryer and made a ball float in the air. I learnt so much from this science show! Under this text would be some videos and a few pictures.


From watching this science show I have learnt more about waters chemicals because the chemicals in water is h2o, and I learnt more about air pressure and what will happen if the air pressure is fast. This is probably one of the best shows iv'e seen!

I wonder how many years Richard has been doing these shows and practising because all of these tricks are really cool. It is like an illusion.

Overall I think that this show was really worth it because you can also learn more things about science and I got amazed really quickly.

Comment down below if you have ever seen this show or if you haven't comment if you would like to see it. I hoped that you have enjoyed this blog post and would also get inspired to see it. Bye! Bye! Blogging world!

2017 Thrilling Skiing Adventure!!!

Hello blogging world! Last week most of the senior syndicate was in for a ride to Mt Ruapehu. The staff decided to go on a snow camp, you can either choose to do skiing or snowboarding. I obviously chose skiing because skiing was much easier than snowboarding. Everyone that was going to camp had a gear list of what they need for this amazing camp. We also started a camp booklet that has a waterfall of information about camp. My slideshow will be in this blog post. 

Half of the families couldn't go to camp but then things changed and they could go. Thanks to Julie for helping us get a $10,000 grant so that everyone could go, and also thanks to our principle who actually let us go on this stunning snow camp. This slideshow would be about some camp information and some research of the some of the places we went to. Below this text is my camp booklet!



Some places like Hamilton Gardens and the Ed Hilary Walkway we had a challenge like however is first to get all the garden names correct and whoever find the most correct answers the prizes was chocolates and for the Hamilton Gardens my group came second so we also won chocolate too. From making this work I have learnt more facts about the three volcanoes and the places that we have been.

 What I found challenging was the first day skiing because I have never experienced skiing and I felt like I was in a lava pit. What I found successful was on the second day of skiing because Mr.Riceman helped me and my friend with more tricks, and on that day I never gave up and I tried everything I could because it was sadly the last day, and I needed to spend my time wisely before we left. Big thanks to everyone who had taken their time to come to camp, and the people that taught me how to ski. 

Overall I really enjoyed this camp because it was my first time skiing and going on the jaw dropping chairlifts. Thank you for reading this blog post please feel free to leave a positive, thoughtful and helpful comment. Bye! Bye! Blogging world!
