Room 1 Scientists! by Lucy George and Tyson Hutchinson

In Room 1 we have a science table with lots of interesting things on it such as........

Fools Gold! Shark poo! Amethyst! Moon stone! Geodes! And a huge Sperm Wale tooth!

Why do we have a science table?

We have it so that we can look at unusual and everyday things, and we can ask questions about them. What is it? Where does it come from? How is it formed? Where is it from? How could we find out more about it?

Tyson: We like it because it has lots of awesome stuff on it.

Lucy: There are things that other people might not ever see. We could find out more about it by asking my Aunty Annette, who is a geologist.

A Rippa Day of Rugby by Olivia Johns

Our hearts were thumping and we were sweating all over our bodies! Time was going by, and we KNEW it was! I was breathing heavily, hoping to be able to gain more speed.

"RIP!"

It was only my first game and I already had my first rip! I was so proud because the person I ripped was really fast! I didn't get one try but I was happy that our team got an intercept pass from the other team.

I was really excited, but the downside of the day was really grazing my legs from diving on the ground. But, I didn't really care about it. After a few minutes I was fine and back on the field. We lost the first four games closely, but we won the first game of the knockout round. Sadly we didn't make it to the final though. It didn't matter though, as we did our best and had lots of fun!

Joyfulness By Jordan Roylance

Joyfulness feels like a rabbit in the grass

Joyfulness tastes like bacon in my mouth

Joyfulness smell like fresh kahawai in my smoker

Joyfulness sounds like my favourite song in my head

Joyfulness look like dolphins jumping out of the water

Joyfulness is the colour yellow as the sun
