What A Term!!!!

Wow!!! What a very full on term we have had. Speeches went extremely well and congratulations to Amy, Kavan and Majenta who were our Yr 5's who made it through to the syndicate finals, and to Marius, Katie and Jonathan who made it through for our Yr 6's. We also had some fun with our science experiments working towards our Science fair investigations. We had some very thorough investigations for teh Science Fair. We learnt that smell does effect the way we taste food, that caffeine makes your heart rate increase and that our reactions get a little better with age. Running makes your heart beat faster than skipping or walking, the colour of a drink effects whether we like it and can guess the flavour correctly, and the effects of energy drinks on our teeth! Congratulations to The Lab Rats who came first in the Waiuku School's Science Fair for Rotten Energy. I will never look at, or drink, a V again!. Also congratulations to The Brainy Bunch for their Reaction Robbers investigation who came second in the Science Fair, and also to Colourful Concoctions who came in third.
Book Week was also a success with a fantastic Book Character Parade on Friday afternoon. What a lot of effort that went into the costumes. Keep a look out for the slide show of the photos.
Maori Language week was also a success, and some wonderful artwork about our families was produced.
Looking forward to next term with our study on The Rugby World Cup. Go The All Blacks!!!!
