Room 4's Poems

Happiness by Fleur

Happiness
Joyful, Fun
Laughhing, Giggling, Smiling
Happiness is yellow like the sun.
Bliss

Sadness by Libby

Sadness is blue like the endless sea,
It tastes like rice bland and tasteless,
It smells like sewage pungent and disgusting,
It looks like a never ending pit,
It sounds like the echo in a dark tunnel,
It feels cold and relentless.

BP Water Tower Tech Challenge

On Friday we did another BP Tech Challenge. This time it was alot harder because it had to hold a 750ml bottle. We could only use Newspapers, sellotape and string. The winners were: Michael, Edward and Elson that managed to hold 1.5l.

Well done Guys.

Limerick By Libby

There once was a woman named Kim
Who previously lost her limb
She developed a hop
She started, she couldn't stop
Her life was since reasonably dim

Enterprise Poem

Edmund Hillary, a New Zealand hero.


New ideas are always needed.


Trains. From Steam trains to the Maitangi train.


Entrepreneur


Relating ideas to others


Projects are made and changed to satisfaction


Risks are a big part of Enterprise


I is for ideas that are always needed


Selling is also quite a big part of Enterprise


E is for Enterprise





By Fleur



BP Tower Tech Challenge

As part of our Enterprise unit we have been constructing towers, only able to use a small roll of sellotape, 10 pieces of newspaper and our mind. The tallest in our class was approximately 3.5 metres made by Pererika, William, Justin and Ryan.

Congratulations to Nasan from our class for making the team to represent our school along with 3 others. These four will be entering their own ginger beer in the Wellington competition made entirely by themselves!
