Career's day experience

Careers Day 2015 on PhotoPeach We had a fantastic time exploring the career options that were shared with us on Thursday. Room 15 asked a lot of thoughtful questions and made a real effort to have a go at all the 'hands on' opportunities on offer. A very valuable experience that introduced a number of new possibilities for many students.

Do Cyclops' exist? Exploring the unexplained




WWE- Room 15 Wrestling

On a wet day earlier this week we had a PE session to develop our wrestling skills- following the kiwi wrestling program.
What a lot of fun. We learnt some new moves and certainly burnt off some extra wet weather energy!
Check some of our moves out below...

Where Art and Inquiry meet



Mrs Griffin has been taking Room 15 through an art journey. We were each given a numbered piece of A4 paper (some with painted lines, some without) and instructed to add colour (- it was actually a bit more specific than it sounds!)
Overtime the puzzle began to take shape...until..'Knowledge is a jigsaw' was revealed. This is a concept we have been discussing through inquiry this term.
What a colourful addition to Room 15!

Forensic's: Crime Scene Investigation @ HNI

Detective Constable Kate Hyde and Senior Constable Gavin Cross came in to give a presentation to Te Kanawa House this morning. We received an overview of what forensics are, before taking part in the process of a crime scene investigation. What a great way to spend the morning...we are now all geared up to learn more about forensic science over the next couple of weeks- exploring the unexplained.
