3D Printer


We have a 3D printer now !!  We have been learning how to use TinkerCad to create 3D designs. TinkerCad is an amazing programme to create interesting designs. You have to know how to make holes in shapes and how to join two shapes together.  I am looking forward to seeing how my creation turns out on the printer.

Potato Famine


This term for our unit of inquiry we are learning about how events can change the course of history. We learned in class about the potato famine in Ireland and how that when the potatoes got blight it changed the Irish people's life forever. 

Check out our Voki! Sorry about the accent.

Each week on a Friday some girls from Year 5-8 come to Robotics club.
At Robotics we learn how to program robots and how to build new designs.

The last 2 weeks Science Alive came to show us Nao robots and taught us what they can do.

8B's Art Walk - Wongi

Mr Montejo took 8B and 7G on an Art walk through Christchurch to see the graffiti walls in the CBD.
On the walk we meet Wongi who did a graffiti wall of a book that represented a scrapbook because graffiti artists use scrapbooks to draw ideas that they might flick through later and think, 'That's a great idea! I shall paint that on my next wall/canvas.'
