Kids Expo
Rohan O, Sam and Joe were our class representatives at the Kids Expo last month and Viv has finally organised to put the movies they made onto the blog. The task was to interview people and take photos at the expo and create a finished movie, all within one hour. We hope you are impressed!

Clean Streams, Creeks and Ponds
We have been learning about streams and comparing the fearures of clean streams and those which have been affected by external influences. Today Mel McCoglan told us about stream life and she showed a great video about a stream which had some pollution and some clean parts.
After that we played a game where we tried to score points by cleaning up Old Bernie's Pond. Some of us were able to get to the end, score 7 points and win a certificate. There is a link for people from room 5 to have another try to clean the pond. I hope you can remember the username and password. I'll write it up at school in case you need to copy it. Have fun.

Landscapes at the Suter
On Monday we visited the Suter Art Gallery to learn about landscapes with Esther. Landscape can mean the way you place your paper on the side or it can be an art work of an outdoor scene. We learnt about some special techniques thta artists use when they paint landscapes. The use overlapping, angles, making things big in the foreground and small at the back and theyuse fading in the distance.
Esther helped us to make a ladscape.
We were so lucky after that because Sally Burton was there putting together her installation of Hueia Matenga and the wreck of the Delaware. She stopped and told us lots of stories about why she had chosen the different piees of driftwood and how she had used very limited colours for her work. It was very interesting. We will be going to see that exhibition next term.

We had a wonderful Blog Party today to celebrate just over 3000 hits in the last two and a bit terms. The food was wonderful with lots of delicious, healthy treats and a few not so healthy treats.
I wonder how quickly we will get the next thousand hits on our blog?
