Bible play in the hall

Today the whole school had bible in the hall and we listened to a story about Christmas, it was on the topic of the lord's son being born. For me it was awesome, the host also said "Thank you for that nice welcome Henderson West, Henderson South, Henderson East no you're Henderson North School". 

I learned a lot of stuff there was some comedy in it, but I don't think Spongebob was meant to be in the story nor the captain as well but there was, a person dressed in a fluorescent green top, leggings, skirt and jacket she was the star that led the three kings, the tree wise men and the sheared her characters name was twinkly dinkley. 

The host choose the people to play Mary,  Joseph, the innkeeper, even the pillow, the sheep, the three wise men, the angel, the three kings and the door. 

It was a very good play and even some of my old bible teachers where there, it was awesome to see them again, its also good to see that they look great, and I agree that they look fine.  

I wanted to see more than what we saw but it was time for us to say good bye, but at the end of the day it was fun. At the end of the play we said a prayer then one of our teachers let use us to leave, then we went to our own class and our teacher then our class. The went outside and played for 5 minutes then went inside and did some work.

That's the end of my tale good bye

Hosting Kidsedchatnz

This week Room 1 hosted Kidsedchatnz. We had to come up with the questions for the chat session and Mr Walker had to moderate the lesson. Our students were joined by children from around the country to talk all about culture. We also had a student from each of room 4 & 7 with us to join in.

The questions we used were:

The room 1 kids did a great job and helped choose the tweets of the week and pointed out when Mr Walker needed to send the next question.

Thanks to Sara, Carys, Renitta, Jordan, Francis, Angus and Daijahn for taking part in Room 1.

Skype with Tom Campbell

On Friday the 15th we had a skyping session with Mr Campbell, we learnt so much from him he even told us how old he is. He's been diving for 50 years and he has a humongous megalodon tooth and an old diving helmet.

We learnt that the camera weighs 50lbs above water but is quite light under water.

Once he ran out of air when he was filming inside a sunken Japanese submarine, but he couldn't swim straight to the surface because you have to be careful of water pressure. So we're trying to find out more about 'the bends'.

Oceanography/Water pressure

HNSRM1
Our teacher Mr Walker chose me to do an experiment on water pressure so if you want to try this then get the following:

You need:
2 jars one small,one large
Water, as much as you want in each jar and or cup
One straw

Optional
A pencil and paper for notes

Method-
Now blow gently at the surface of the water now listen
If there's a bubbly noise and it's nice and light your doing it right.

Blow at the bottom of the cup or jar and listen to the noise it should be a
Ruff but light sound

Now which way is it harder to blow top or bottom?

It should be the bottom because the pressure is pushing it down.
For example-If you were at the bottom of they ocean the weight on top of
You would be like a elephant on top of your fingernail and so that's why a submarine or any other under water vehicle has to be tuff .You should now try it,
With the bigger jar comment on this once you have tried it or tell your teacher to try it with your class room!

The Peace Child

THE PEACE CHILD


The Peace Child is a show that the seniors did for this year, we do one every two years. It's about two tribes, one is called the Wannkeekee tribe and the another tribe is the Sotongi tribe. There were three narrators that tell the story. They both hate each other and they never got along until one day something very weird happened in the Sotongi tribe. A camera crew and a Reporter that loved herself wanted to build a bridge, but the bridge would just make war. Then one day the Wannkeekee Chief's wife had a baby boy and everybody was very happy. But then the chief had a weird dream about dead warriors and wisdom, he had the same dream for two more nights . He said our child must be the peace child, the mother was so sad you could almost hear her heart beat and she sang a solo, it was a very sad moment in the story. As the chief gives the baby to the other tribe that would make peace between the two tribes.
