For our cyber smart challenge we had to create a wanted/missing poster. I created a missing poster stating what the culprit looked like, and the bounty that was set on him.

In week 7, 8 team tui has been working on wearable art. Students have been making amazing pieces of work. Wearable art is clothing that expresses the creators artistic statement. It is art in a wearable form, it is a type of slow fashion. Wearable art first started in rural Nelson Newzealand.

 

This term we have been learning about science. We were learning about earth and beyond. Heres a question, why does life only exist on earth?

 Why Are Cultural Celebrations Important At School

 

Culture Celebrations are so important because it is a new experience.
You get to learn something about a different culture.

During a cultural celebration you can find activities or people that interest you. It helps to celebrate our differences, and brings us together to unite and educate one another.

 

When we all come together to celebrate other cultures it’s a way to understand each other and find out about yourself and your roots. Cultural Celebrations at school are not that different. Instead, you get to watch performances, and listen to beautiful songs. It’s nice to see everyone embracing their culture every once in a while.

 

At school we embrace cultures very much. Like having a week devoted to learning about that culture. You get to make traditional things or even cook food from that culture! It is such an enjoyable experience to be learning about someone else’s culture. The food is also new and exciting to taste. It’s like expanding your taste buds? 

 

When you get to learn about your own culture, you can also ask your parents for guidance, or to teach you more about your ethnicity. Knowing about where you come from means that you can pass your knowledge on to the next generation or even a friend or family member, so that they can learn and be more experienced. It’s fun to see everyone being positive about their culture since we live in such a diverse world.

 

Cultural Celebrations are important at school because its helps us learn more about other people and their culture.

This week Team Tui was celebrating Tongan language week. We made things like fans, bracelets and tapa cloth.

On Wednesday, the whole school came together and ate some traditional tongan food.

 

We learnt about ancient rome this term. We first wrote some facts on an online slide, then printed them. We pasted the slides onto our trifold then made it look more presentable.

At the Botanical Gardens we learnt about flowers. Our groups were handed magnifying glasses. We closely inspected the flowers and figured out which part is which. Then in the second photo we had to put the flower together along with the name tags.
