Room 7's Rubbish Audit

The Whero reading group did a rubbish audit after lunch today as part of our Reduce, Reuse, Recycle topic. They found Room 7 students threw 31 pieces of plastic, 30 pieces of paper and 39 pieces of food scraps into the classroom rubbish bin.Our goal is to reduce the rubbish in our rubbish bin down to zero waste. We will be working on ways to achieve this throughout the term.

Anzac Biscuits

Room 7 enjoyed making and eating Anzac biscuits. We learnt that most probably the wives and girlfriends of the soldiers at war made these biscuits and sent them via ships for them to enjoy on the battle field. As the recipe does not contain eggs, the biscuits were fine to eat, even after a two month journey on a ship.

Hockey Skills

Room 7 students are very fortunate as they are taking part in hockey skills sessions every day this week. Fun times!

Winners!

These wonderful cricket players are holding the trophies they won this weekend for winning the primary school cricket division. Awesome efforts boys.

Room 7 had a great day yesterday learning how to ride our bikes safely on the road.

Science in Room 7

Room 7 students closely studied a candle flame to learn what happens when a candle burns and what the different colours inside the flame mean.  They also discussed the importance of never leaving a burning candle unattended.
