The Bottle Bivy Beginnings!

Today we started out bottle bivy project! Here's a sneak preview of the 'gawker' (timelapse video) we're planning to make once the making is over.



We're also asking for each student to bring a gold coin donation to help with the costs of the glue gun sticks - the build take over 60 to get the job done. Thanks to everyone who's brought bottles into school. We couldn't have started without your help and team work!

"What did you do at school today?"

Have your parents asked you that question before? Here's what you could have said...yesterday!

Skills Project - Practice Video

We've been working hard to practise one skill - it has to be new and tricky one. Each student is setting goals, planning their coaches and resources and then practising while working on their next step.

Have a look at our progress!

Our Reflection game

Kauri's word of the week is reflection so we all played a game on reflecting. We got into groups and stood in a line behind cones across from another group. Then each group got a batten and ran it over to the group across from us. We tried to make the best time of getting it over to the other group.

We went from a time of 35 seconds to 9 seconds and it all came down to our reflection on how we beat our time and improved ourselves! The negative stuff (mistakes) is that we were too far away the first time we played it. That is why we got 35 seconds and people where dropping the batten.

The good stuff is that we reflected and we went closer to getting a better time! We had fun playing this game and now we are getting the idea of what Reflection means!
