Rotorua Lakes High Visit

On September the 11th we went to Rotorua Lakes High School it was a really awesome day I really enjoyed it. We had some year 12 student to take us around the school we went to lots of different tech classes which was: Art, Cooking,Languages,Science, Maths and the gym. Cooking was really cool we made little baskets and molded shapes into plastic to put the chocolate we were making into the chocolate was really nice! At science we dissected a Deer eye and we put a tube down the throat and into the lungs then I blew into the pipe and the lungs inflated it was awesome! In the gym we played a game called pirates it was like a giant game of tag but we had to stay on the yellow lines and there we heaps of fun obstacles like a giant trampoline, beams, a climbing tower with ropes to swing of it, ropes and heaps more it was the funnest game ever! Maths was fun we had to solve lots of problems to get puzzle pieces at the end we had to put the puzzle pieces together my group won so we got some lollies. At Art we did some print making it was really cool. At languages we played a game called fruit salad with with spanish words. Lakes High is a really amazing school it really impressed me.

Devon Intermediate Sports Exchange

On Monday the 2 of September 77 sporty students from Devon Intermediate School in Taranaki came up for a sports exchange. My sister and I took a billet each a girl called Rebekah and a boy called Gage. My billet Gage was so funny and really cool and the Rebekah was quiet. They both played soccer but they both lost there games! Our year 8 A netball team won: 39/8, and our other year 8 B netball team won: 28/12, our basketball team won:68/26, our girls soccer team won: 1/0, our boys soccer team won:2/1 and the year 7 netball team won 28/5. But we got thrashed in rugby number 5 in there team was huge and strongly build so he ran through our whole team and everyone was scared to tackle him so he scored most of the tries the score was 68/26. Last night there was a disco it was pretty fun it started at 5:50 and ended at 8:00 there were chips, drinks, glow sticks, and sausages. Overall the exchange was really awesome i had a wicked time.

Science Project

On Monday we had our first science lesson with our teacher we were making lava lamp in test tubes! It was really cool we filled the tube 1/3 of water then the rest with cooking oil and then put 3 drops of food colouring. After it settled for acouple minutes we put a bit of Alka Seltzer (fizzy stuff) and then the magic happened the fizzy stuff pushed the colourfull bubbles up and then back up. Later that day we had to make a question for the next day our groups question was ' Would a berocca and Panadol Rapid Relief work aswell as Alka Seltzer. Would the type of oil matter aswell?' The next day I bought in a berocca 2 different types of oil and Panadol rapid relief the test went well but the best was the Berocca with rice bran oil. So we made a bigger one it was AWESOME!
