My Favourite Memories.

Hi it is me again. I am going to share my memories at Richmond School. One of them was Quilt we got from Avebury house. It was so kind of them. We also went to Clip and Climb my favourite part was the cheese one I can't remember the name. I sill can't forget the time when I first came here and my first friend was Salote. We also had Daffodil Day we had to drees up in yellow. We had swimming lessons, they were fun and I learned how to swim. Now I'm good at backstroke.

 We also had Red Nose Day but I wasn't here so I missed out. We had a Top Team Challenge. It was a lot of fun. We also went to Antarctic centre where we played in the snow and it was fun spending time with my friend's in the snow. In the past we also went to QE2, which isn't there anymore. Last year we went on camp at Living Spring with the year six's from last year. Next year I will be seeing those old Year Six's at my new school. I hope we go to a fun awesome school oh and before I go please read my next blog .

  

Richmond School Gala

Richmond Celebration Gala 

                                        

On Friday 8 November Richmond School held their Gala Celebrations. Our Gala was from 4:30 to 6:30 pm.We were celebrating and thanking our community for all their support over the years. Everything was free it's our way to say thank you.

It was nice to see some of our old people who used to come here. We had a lot of fun and it was also nice to see everyone show up. Room 3 worked really hard to get everything ready for the gala. Oh yes I forgot to tell you that this school opened in 1875 and it has been here for 138 years.

 We had an outdoor cafe that gave out Popcorn and Candy Floss. Our teacher cooked and gave out free Sausages Sizzle, Meat Pattie Sandwiches, Bacon Butties, Coffee, Tea, Juice, flavoured water and fruit salad. "The food was so good." "Yum". We also provided table and chairs for our guest to sit on. 

We also had some fun activities like three little Jeeps to ride on for free, we had two Bouncy Castles, Cheap Skate Skateboards, Skates and Ramps. 

I came with my cousin and his mum. My favourite activity was the Jeeps. I loved the Bouncy Castle. My favourite food was the popcorn and candy floss. 

In my opinion it was awesome and it was nice to see everyone enjoy themselves. I would love to do it again. 

Top team challenge

31/10/13.                                       Top Team Challenge.

On Tuesday 29 of October my school hosted a Top Team Challenge. We invited some school to participate in the Top Team Challenge. The schools were Linwood North, Shirley Primary, Banks Avenue, Seabrook Mackenzie and ourselves, Richmond.

 We had 10 activities some of them were the Egg and Spoon race, the Jig Saw Puzzle, the Water activities and the Memory Maze. Canterbury Sports organised everything and they supplied all the equipment for each activity. There was more than a hundred people competing.

  

We had team's. My team was called The Blue Whale our colour was Blue. The people in my team were Michael the team captain, Jakita, De-Ella, Ailze, Riley and myself. In my opinion we all had a blast. 

Flick it on challenge .

Hi it is me again. This term Room 3 have making a film called Flick it on challenge, the student collaborative film making challenge. First we made a silent movie after we had researched about it. Then  we give our movie to another school in America they send their movie to a school in the North Island and they send theirs to us. The school in America add's music and the school in the North Island add's the dialogue to our movie and we do the same to their movie.

There are 3 things we needed to add in the movie a clock, a magic trick and the rubriks cube. Our theme has been how  Education has changed over time. We went to Willowbank to film the Pre European then we went to Ferrymead to film the Early European time. The Present was filmed at school in Room 1 and 2 , the Future was filmed in the I.C.T room. We green screened the Future . The film is one minute long.  So each of the scenes are only 15 seconds. We had time traveller who were Hannah and Noa. The people in the Pre European were Salote, John , Rodney and Jakita. Salote was the teacher. The Early European actors were Connor, Jakita and Tom. Whaea Rose was the teacher. In the Future scene the actors were  Michael, Rishap, Kamai and me. The scene went amazingly well and we also learned so much. 

In my opinion we did a magnificent job.

Minecraft Classroom Design

Today I would like to tell you about a awesome project  Room 3 has done in Minecraft. Minecraft is a program where we have made our own classrooms and so we know how it looks. And everyone's  classrooms look like a designer and builder has done them, they are mind blowing, awesome rooms. We all brain stormed a lot. Brain storm is when we think up all sorts of different ideas and write them down but we call it Brain storm. After we Brain stormed we design our classroom. We used plastic blocks to make our 3D classrooms.  They looked fantastic . And after we used the plastic blocks. Whaea Sharon who is our  teacher said " Great, move on to the next step."

 And so we moved to the next step and the next step was that we made our plan for Minecraft.. It went amazingly well but everybody had to wait quietly and be patient sometimes.And then the time came for Minecraft.      

We where so happy. My friend Hannah and I became the principal of the school. The schools name is Yellows Vill girl high. The school is going to be single story building. The school will also have a snow room like the Antarctic Centre, just for fun.
