Safety Rules

 Hello everyone, today I will be talking about Safety Rules. A couple of weeks ago we learnt about Safety Rules in the lab (for science). There were a few but they were all important. Here are most of the Safety Rules we learnt.

While doing a practical remember to use your safety glasses (goggles) too protect your eyes

Make sure when your doing a practical stand up and don't sit down, so if your experiment "explodes" you can back away faster.

Remember too keep your hair tied up and if your hair is long tie it up with a bobble.

Make sure equipment gets put away.

No running around the lab.

Always wear covered shoes (leather and that type of material).

When a piece of equipment gets broken make sure you tell a teacher.

Thank you for reading my blog post. I hope I have taught you something. Have a good day or night and I will hopefully see you tomorrow, bye :)

Bunsen Burner Flame Temperature

 Hello everyone, today I am going to be talking about our science practical we did yesterday. The practical we did yesterday was checking temperatures of the Bunsen Burner. Our class did the safety flame and the roaring/blue flame. 

We couldn't do our safety flame because our (I did this with my friend Treyvon) first try the Bunsen burner randomly went out so we had to wait for our teacher too give us another match. Now I will be showing you our table for the different temperatures. 

Before	After	Difference
20.3	60.5	40.2

We also got asked a question and here is my answer for it.

Why do we need to make the test fair? So we can get the best average as possible

Thank you for reading my blog post. Have a good day or night, bye!

EOTC

 Hello people, today I am going to be talking about EOTC week. The reason why I have been blogging lately was because we were doing that. We got to do this for 5 days. They we all different activities. The first day we went to Orana Park, the next day we went to Quail Island, the next day we went Surfing, the next week on Monday we went Clip N Climbing and the last day we went to the New Brighton hot pools. My favourite was the hot pools because it was relaxing. Here are some photos.

This picture was at Clip N Climb

I forgot to mention this, it is a little pool that is 10-14 degrees. You walk into while crossing your hands.

Office Of Children's Commissioner

 Hello people, today I am going to be talking about the visitors that came here. They came to our school from Wellington. There were four of them their names were Peter, Te Ara, Mereana and Erin. Apparently picked 5 schools out of around 200 and we were one of those schools. We were learning of how to help with bullying. They separated us into 2 teams I was in team 1. 

Our first activity was trying to keep the ball in the air both teams got fourteen. Then our second activity was what makes you happy and that. After that we played this passing game, you had to pass free times then place the ball on the ground and that's one point. I forgot the score but our team won. Then we played a lot more games.

They gave us some food it was Pizza Hut. I had 4 pieces and all of them were pepperoni pizza. They also gave us some water. 

After lunch time we got changed into different groups. We had a walk around the school with Peter and talked about bullying. Then we had a game of Volleyball for like 5 minutes. 

This was a fun game. My favourite activity was probably trying to keep the ball up in the air. I hope you enjoyed this blog post, feel free to comment and I will see you on my next blog post goodbye.

Athletics

 Hello people, today I am going to be talking about athletics. This was to get us qualified into zones but sadly I didn't make it. We did this on Wednesday when it was raining. We did zones the next day because it was pouring down with rain. We did Shot Put, Discus, Long Jump, High Jump and a fun activity with Mrs T. This was still fun even when I didn't make it to zones.
