Metallurgy 2022

 This term in science we have been learning about metallurgy. We have learnt heaps of new metals and alloys. I have enjoyed doing lots of experiments with Matua Rob and Whaea Katie. My favourite experiment was when we help a piece of magnesium over the Bunsen burner and it made a really bright light. I have learned lots of new words, like malleable, which means when a metal can be shaped into anything, and lustrous, which means its shiny and reflective, also ductile which means it can be drawn out/stretched into things like wires, and the last one conductive, which means it can conduct electricity.

I have enjoyed this subject a lot this term and look forward to moving onto the next subject.

AGH 2022

 In AGH this year we have been growing lots of stuff. We grew potatoes, bok choy, lettuce, carrots and much more. we have also learnt how to properly plant and maintain good growth with plants. I have enjoyed AGH because we have given heaps of food to the canteen for the lunches and will continue to do so. I also enjoyed it because most of the time we were outside doing stuff and not stuck in the classroom.
