Kia Ora,

Its Pink Shirt Day! Pink Shirt day is a campaign celebrated annually, that is trying to stop bullying around the globe. At NBC we came to school with happy attitudes and lots of pink items, The year 8 girls got their photo taken and we look amazing in all that bright and pale pink! Here is a photo of us;

Im on the far left. Have you ever worn pink to school or work on pink shirt day? Here is a pink T-Shirt that I made with my friend Indigo;

Kia Ora,

In Room 9 and 10 this week we have been designing and painting plastic fishes. These fishes are ging up in new brighton as a peice of art from NBC. My draft was origianly puzzle pieces but i found that it was just too hard, so I ended up doing love hearts and dots. I painted the background of my fish a light peachy colour and had tiny pink love hearts and little blue dots.  Have you ever done something like this? This is my fish;

Kia Ora,

In Room 9 and 10 for the last week we have been focused in art on making a fish draft for a plastic fish which will be put on a mural in New Brighton. My idea for my fish was to have puzzle peices with shells on them. I really liked this idea and didnt finish my draft but this is it;

Have you ever done an activity like this for school or fun?

Kia Ora,

In Room 9 and 10 for maths this term we have been learning algebra, simplifying fractions, patterns and finding x, y, a, b ect.  Me and Cyrena made a video on patterns but it was too big to put on our blog so we improvised and made a slide;

Have you ever made anything like this?

Kia Ora,

In room 9 and 10 lately for writting we have been writting about mythological creatures. After writting about the lochness monster we were set up with the task of making our own mythological creature and writting about it. This is my mythological creature writting, It is called a Rittle;

Have you ever written about a mythological creature?

At NBC  for the past week room 9 and 10 have been working on a slideshow of bible verses and our reflections on those bible verses. I found this task a bit challenging but it has helped me know more about the bible. I worked with my close friend Cyrena on this slide, Here it is:

Do you have a favourite bible verse?

Xin chào, (Hello in Vietnamese)

Welcome to 2025! This year im a year 8 at NBC and am excited to head off to highschool next year! So far this year I have gone on holiday to Leithfeild beach and done some school activities like animation, writing, maths and more! I started off 2025 in Pohara which is in Golden Bay up the top of the South Island! I was in Pohara for new years with some of my family like my cousins and parents. When I was in Pohara I went up to Wharariki, Wharariki is near Farewell Spit. After coming back from Pohara, I later went away to Leithfeild beach with some family and family friends. Leithfeild beach is near Ōtautahi Christchurch. When school started back I was excited to be a year 8 and go to highschool in a year. Im hoping to improve my maths before I go to highschool and plan more of my life.

This is wharariki:

Kia Ora,

On the long weekend I went to Hanmer Springs and I stayed at Top 10 Holiday park with my family and friends. On Friday and Saturday I went to Hanmer Springs Hotpools, With Lilly-Ann, Harvey, Dexter, My sister Andie, and my parents. I had lots of fun and love visiting Hanmer Springs. I’ll probably be going back there soon for easter, which will be fun. My favourite part was hanging out with my friends at gthe hotpools! Have you ever been to Hanmer Springs? If you have, Have you been in their hotpools?
