Learning About Electricity With Vector !

Last Tuesday week  Room 12 had a visitor from Vector to educate us about how electricity is made and what electricity does when we use it.

When using electricity it can be very expensive to pay for, but Vector has found a cheaper way by using solar power. The solar panel collects power from the sun and stores the energy in a battery. The battery is saving power to use later because we children are not at home most of the time when the sun is up.

Thanks to Vector I know a lot about energy and power.

Special Assembly ツ

This Monday morning we had a special assembly. The year 4's were awarded special prizes for having a great attitude towards learning.

They have received a 40 dollar deposit towards they're chromebooks for next year 2019. The overall winner was Aleki. Mrs Samuel-Latu has given him a new uniform, 40 dollar deposit for his chromebook and a box of favourites.

Joy, Solomene, Pita and Aleki were acknowledged for their dedication and hard work towards learning.

Mrs Samuel-Latu and her sisters have been coming for the past 8 years to present these awards. Sadly this is the last time we will be having this type of assembly for our year 4's.

I hope the winners will continue their hard work and dedication in the future.

Armistice Day

Sunday the 11th of November is also known as Armistice Day. Auckland Museum had put ten thousand crosses on the fields outside it in remembrance. They symbolised the NZ soldiers that died in WW1.
