Students from Room 5 participated in a variety of activities in Term 2.  Their many achievements and successes deserve praise. Here are a few.

As part of the Enviro Group, Thomas, Jack Adams, Kobe and Amelia Price participated in the School Gen workshop with Maggie Twaddle. They extended their knowledge on how the solar panels convert solar energy into electricity, and learned about renewable energy sources. These experts shared their learning with Room 5 and our buddy class, Room 1.

The culmination of one and half term's work on Trash 2 Fashion took place on the 18 June. Our creative designers completed their amazing outfits and strutted their stuff in the semi finals at Peninsular School. These ladies entered the organic and fantasy sections under the theme, Aroha Auckland. They managed to wow the judges and we can't wait to hear the announcements of who is in the finals in July. Well done girls!

The Bayswater School cross country took place in week 7 after weeks of fitness training to increase personal stamina. Gracie, Georgia and Mollie ran in first in their age groups and we wish them luck representing Bayswater School at the Peninsular cross country in week 9.

Room 5 students visited MOTAT to consolidate learning on FORCES which is our science focus for this term. Not only were the children able to engage in a practical session building simple machines, but they also got the opportunity to see these in action in amazing exhibits. The remainder of the term will be exploring the force of magnetism.

We are looking forward to completing individual science investigations next term!
