2016 Year Review

My 2016 Year Review

The major events this year that I was apart of were: Athletics, tree planting, Swimming lessons, trips to the regent theatre to watch kapa haka and to see Commander Claire, Have a go sailing, Pet day, the Overnighter and many more. I have really enjoyed participating all of these events.
Some of the highlights this year for me were: Going to Nepal, regent theatre trips and Have a go sailing. I really enjoyed my experience at technology.
The digital learning we better then I thought it would be. After experiencing a year of digital learning, I prefer to do math and writing on paper because then I can write my ideas and answers quicker and my spelling would improve because if i misspell a word on a Chromebook I can just use spellcheck to correct the word whereas if I misspell a word on paper I think about it more and then one i know how to spell it remember.

Next year i'm looking forward to the Bridge Valley camp, more digital learning and skiing because I didn't get to go skiing this year.

Logo Creation



Recently we have been learning about money. Miss J gave everyone in Ruma J a banqer account. Banqer is an online bank system for kids to learn about managing a bank account. For us to learn about managing a bank account we needed some money to put in the bank, so we started our own businesses. My business partner is named Tess. So far we are running 3 companies together. These are the logos for the companies that Tess and I own. I hope you like them.
      This is the logo is of the company that Tess and I first came up with. The name of the company is K&K LTD. K&K LTD provides a service that reminds our classmates to do their jobs. The reason we chose these colours for our logo is because blue is associated with trust, loyalty, wisdom and security.
        This is the logo is of  the company Tess and I came up with second. The name of this company is K&K Kares. This company provides a helping hand to the school by checking the role of how many people there are each day
      This is the logo is of the latest company Tess and I have came up with. The name of the company is K&K Blossoms. Every two days we clean the fallen blossoms from under the tree that's outside our school. We chose these colours for our logo because we liked how they went together.

Harakeke Explanation


We have been learning how to write explanations.We first learned about harakeke and kakahu, then we decided what to write about. I chose to write about harakeke; useful plant parts in the early days, the protocols for harvesting harakeke, and what can be woven.
