Nga Wiki o Te Reo Maori

Room 10 have had a focus on Tikanga Maori over recent weeks; everyone has written their pepeha and these are attached to their desks as a reminder of who they are, these now need to be memorised in preparation for our Marae stay next term.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Maths, Science and some good rugby players

Week 4 sure was a busy one in Room 10. The Education Review Office (ERO) visited Tokoroa Intermediate and we had our class visit on Tuesday. Thanks to Ellie, Nevada and Brooklyn for sharing their learning and answering questions.

Six of the boys went to represent the school at the Waikato Intermediate Rugby Competition - they arrived back very happy, Tokoroa Intermediate won the under 57kg division.

In Maths we have started a statistical investigation, the " oldie but goodie" finding out whether there are the same numbers of each colour/ flavour/ type of lollies in a packet. This involves creating graphs by hand and using Excell to graph the results. Then everyone has to compare their findings with others and present their results to the class.

 

 In Science we are learning about the Physical World and Friction is the area we are focusing on. On Friday some of the class tested the best surface - footwear combinations for a Tug of War, the most effective ways to stop when sliding on lino and learnt a little about lubricants too...

The Tokoroa Wearable Arts Show

On the subject of 'old Room 10 students,  last week's Wearable Arts Show at the Events Centre featured a few too. Jess looked stunning in the creation that Kirsty and her designed.

 

 A great effort also and well done to Georgia and Renee for their imaginative green design.

 

 

The red, green and yellow outfit featured Sarah from the class of 2012.

 

 

Tina performed with the Indian Dance group

 

Quite a night by the looks of it -and Jade one of the main organisers of the event was a Room 10 in '99. Seeing what your former students achieve in life is truly rewarding

The Forest View Production - Grease

This week we were lucky enough to go up to Forest View High School to see their production of 'Grease'- great show and as always good to see old Room 10'student's involved...
