Mouldy Science

In our class we have been doing science. One of the experiments was seeing if we could speed up the process of mould. We put one slice of toast bread and one slice of sandwich into a sealed packet. Different groups put different liquids onto their bread. One group put honey and butter and others put golden syrup. We put one teaspoon of milk. So far it has been one week and ours was first to go mouldy. We had slow on one side of the wall and fast on the other. We had to decide which side ours would go on. We put ours on the fast side and we were correct.

ROCKFEST 2011

Tuesday the 1st of November our class went to the Primary School Rock fest in Stoke. When we arrived there were 12 other schools waiting in the hall listening to the music. Most of the class were starting to get nervous, including me. We watched the first few bands, they were really good. But I thought we still had a really good chance.

After about 5 bands, it was lunchtime. We were getting closer and closer to our turn. After lunch we had one more band to go. Even though I wasn't in the band, I was still very worried. The time came finally and 13 kids slowly walked up to the stage and got ready. I stayed in the audience with our Mahana parents as we watched them play the three songs. By the end I was so happy I couldn't stop smiling. They did so well and Whaea Jane was so proud of the team.

Finally it was done we could relax now. All we had to do was watch and see who would win the black guitar. While the man was placing the numbered paper into the box, one piece blew out. The crowd went quiet and the man said, "Well, that must be it." He picked it up and said, "Mahana School". A huge cheer went up. It was so awesome. Tom went up to get the prize.

When we got back to school, we still couldn't believe it. Our first band from our school at the Stoke Rockfest and we had won this awesome guitar. AMAZING!!!

Changing a Unicylcle Tyre

Unicycles are great and it's been a lot of fun falling off them, but then we get up and try again. We've used them so much that the old tyres were so worn out they popped. On Friday, we were learning about how to change a unicycle tyre with Mr Neal. Kids took turns at helping change the tyre. Next time we are going to learn how to fix a puncture.
