A Letter To My Future-Self.

Today we received our letters we wrote for our future selves. In the beginning of the term we wrote a letter saying what we what to achieve, how we will challenge ourselves. I wrote that I want to achieve all my leadership badges and I did. I also wrote that I want to challenge myself and always want to be more confident especially because I am going to Intermediate and I want to be more confident there. I am proud of myself because I achieved most of the goals and I am still working on being more confident.  

Christmas Calculated Colouring.

Today I completed my Christmas calculated colouring. I had to try figure out the equivalent of each fraction and when I get it right there is a colour I have to colour it but I decided to do lines instead of colouring the whole thing. When I finished I saw a Christmas tree, presents, Gold star, stockings, ribbons and the fire. I really like doing activities like this. I will be showing more activities we did this week.

End Of Year Mass

Yesterday was my Graduation Mass. Since it was nearly the end of the year we did a mass for the year 6's who will have a new journey next year. This is my Art I did that was displayed in the church. We did a performance and the song was Time of our Lives by Tyrone Wells. It was a very emotional time for everyone yesterday. I remember being a year 1 being inspired by the leaders of this school and to see myself be a leader it's very hard saying goodbye to my best friends and all the special teachers. At the end of the mass I gave out 9 chocolate necklaces at the end. Good Luck to everyone that will be leaving. I will miss Good Shepherd School very much. 

Making Sherbet.

Today in Science we made Sherbet. We used 4 different ingredients Citric Acid to make it tangy, Baking Soda to make it fizz in your mouth, Icing Sugar to make it sweet and Tartaric Acid to make it very sour. First Mrs Drummond made us try all these 4 ingredients let me tell you Tartaric Acid was so sour. Most of us thought it was so sour that we had to spit it out o the grass. In my group we all got to mix it and put those 4 ingredients in and we thought if something had to much or too less. At the end our Sherbet turned out so yum. It was also bubbling in our mouths. I liked the part when we got to try each other group's Sherbet. Overall I loved making this and I loved that now I know how to make sherbet.

In Room 5 we each made a shield. On these shields it said why we are unique and why Room 5 is special. This is what I wrote.

I am Unique because.

I have the best friends

This is my last year in Good Shepherd School.

Yearbook 2018

This year the yearbooks were back. Since this is my last year at Good Shepherd I got the yearbook 2018. My favourite pages are the Room 5 page and the year 6's page. The year 6 page had photos when we were year 1 and next to it was the photo we took at year 6. All the photos are very cute. This page is where anyone can sign and write nice comments. Most people wrote their goodbyes and good luck to me in my next school.

Passports Activities.

In Topic we had time to do passport activities. I chose the activity where you list 15 of the best New Zealand songs for a disco. These songs include some from the early 19's and some song from the past. I also really enjoyed listening to songs I never heard.
