Cadbury Chocolate Sales


This term we have been selling Cadbury chocolates to fundraise for the school. Year 8's are raising money for school equipment and their social trip at the end of the year. You had to sell one box to have your social trip paid off. The year 7's were fundraising for their camp in 2011.
Room 23 are currently placed second for the year 8 group. This is an awesome feat considering we have only 15 year 8 students in our classroom.

Miss Moris


In room 23 we have been privileged to have Miss Morris teach in our classroom. Miss Morris is a student teacher in her third year of training. She has come from A.U.T on the North Shore. She will be teaching in our class for the next four weeks. So far she has been in our class for two weeks and it has been great, she has great knowledge of literacy and we have enjoyed her practical lessons. We all wish her well with her own classroom. She has bright future ahead of her.

Music Technology


This term for technology from our class Me, Madeleine, Remi and Sullivan are in music. We have been taught how to play all sorts of different instruments, melodies and chords. We make up music to different songs and also complete some listening activities. Next term my tech group will be moving onto Sewing for tech.

Coca Cola Netball Tournament

This term Pukekohe Intermediate decided that they would put in a few teams for the coca cola netball tournament. It was held at Bruce Pulman Park Netball Centre in Papakura on Wednesday 19 May. We took about 15 teams along to the tournament. The team that I played with was called the All or Nothing. Our team came 2 in our section but missed out by 1 point to play on in the semi finals. We all had a blast and some teams even came out with some prizes. I would love to do it again next year and have as much fun as I did.
