Sst

 for the last cupule of weeks we have been doing human rights our resent one we did was human rights planning. what we have been learning in SST we learnt about equality. equality is when you put people on the same terms as you and no higher or lower. also there is equity is when you put someone that is below you to where u are and put the person on there lowest to where u are. also this is the work that I did.

heart dissection

 Tuesday  in 9k we did a heart dissection the class we were in was science. when we where doing the heart dissection we got to cut the heart up and seen how important the heart is. A thing I learnt in science was that the heart has pockets that catch blood when it replenish's your oxygenated blood. in this photo we are looking the things that keeps the heart from popping because they hold it up to make it stronger.

something i found fun in science was cuting the heart open, the reason of this is because i like that type of stuff. something i am look forward to next year is being able to do more stuff like this.

Windy Wellington

Last week all of the year 7&8s went to Wellington we all had fun, but the reason we went was for a celebration for our last year in primary school because year 8s leave next year. As the year 8s leave Paihia Primary to go to college next year the Year 7's will become year 8s. But let’s cut to the chase and talk about something that I learned. I learned that originally the cable carts had big steam engines to power them so it could work, also I leaned the the cable carts were powered by coal and steam. Here are some more things that I enjoyed about Wellington I enjoyed Westpac stadium because of the nice view there. I enjoyed Te Papa because I enjoyed seeing the big sculptures and waka. Also I liked that the sculptures in the Gallipoli exhibit looked so realistic. Also I saw the real Treaty of Waitangi in Te Papa. Something I found interesting was that they made copies of the signed  Treaty so they it didn’t get wrecked by the light. I enjoyed the zoo because we got to see lots of animals,what I liked the most about the zoo was seeing the tiger sleeping. I really enjoyed my trip I hope I can go back some day. Would you like to see the really Treaty of Waitangi?

Steam challenge

On october 16 2019 Te Neghere did a steam challenge. What we had to do was make a Tower out of two pieces of newspaper and 30 cm of tape, also we had 20 minutes to build the tower. We got into  groups of two.My group was Isaiah, Stilwell and me. Something I learned from this is that you don't need too many materials and you need to keep an eye on the time. Also I learned that more time means better build.

Tips To Keep Safe In The Sea

On Thursday Tracy came to teach us about how to to stay alive when your boat capsizes and it sinks. So I learned that you should leave your radio channel on 16 because that’s the coast guard channel, you can buy a beacon that can track you down, but they cost 400-500 dollars, but there is an upside to it they last for 3 days. Also tell the coast guard where you're going and what time you will be coming back, put yourself first eg if it is too risky do not do it, always check the weather before you go out and make sure you and your parent  put a life jacket on.
