Technology

Over the past couple of weeks, the Middle Room have been very busy with our technology. We were given a brief that related to our inquiry topic of “Watch us Grow”. The brief was to design and make something that helps things grow. To be successful we had to design something that:

• Can be used in the garden
• Helps things to grow
• Is our own design
• Doesn’t cost a lot to make
• Works properly
• Is interesting
• Can work independently on this
• Doesn’t take a lot of time to complete

We have been really engaged in our work and have been working very hard to get these completed. Have a look at some photos of us busy creating our designs. We can’t wait to show everyone our finished projects!

Middle Room Camp

Last Wednesday-Friday the Middle Room went on their camp to Waihola and Dunedin. We all had such a fantastic time. We had a jam-packed three days which saw us doing many activities including Leap Trampoline Park, Ten Pin Bowling, Swimming, Kayaking, Art Gallery, Flying fox and Sinclair Wetlands. Thanks to our parent assistants,  Brony, Peter, Brendon and Mark, who came along to help Miss Chapman and Miss Ward. It was much appreciated. Here are a selection of photos of our enjoyable time at camp!
