Galapagos Islands

The Galapagos Islands has been a really interesting topic for the term. I learnt lots of things like.... how animals adapt, what sorts of animals live on the islands, how the islands formed and it has helped me understand what evolution is. Another thing I would like to learn about the Galapagos Islands is discovering more animals because all the animals we have learnt about so far have been really interesting so I would like to learn about some more of the species the live on the islands.

Responsibilities!!!!

At the beginning of the year we all wrote letters to different teachers to get different responsibilities like first aid, librarians etc. I became a sport leader, so Imogen, Eva and I got given a day to be on which is Wednesday. Every Wednesday we go to morning tea and lunch early to pull out the P.E cart and take care of the sports equipment. I have enjoyed the responsibility and helping kids at break.

Finacial Stuff

Yesterday a guy named Vane came to our school from ASB to talk to us about being wise with our money. He was really funny and he gave us some good tips on how to earn money and be careful with it. We played some fun activities and and did some exercises but mainly he did alot of talking, which was fine because he had really good humor and made us laugh alot. I think i did learn some things about money and eftpos cards and that there are 2 ATMS in Antartica but only one of them works. It was fun!

Mission Fair!

Last Friday was the Mission Fair, I was in a group with all my friends, (there was like 11 of us). I had so much fun and we raised lots of money. At my stall we had lots of activities and food like Jelly, Donuts, Sherbert, Fudge, Waffles and games like Lolly pong, choc coin throw, Hairspray and face paint. The whole thing went really well but one thing I would change would be nothing! Unfortunatley this was my last year doing the mission fair so I'm glad we raised lots of money and had fun doing it.
