Week 2 Term 4

Today at Enrich we played a Wilson game called all or nothing, it is a really cool game but quite hard and my team lost! 
We also got to do passion time and I did some work on my dragon - today I put on his skin an I started to use sculpty to make his face and feet. 
We also played a game of leaderboard chess
 and we started our must do's and picks. I did an affective workshop with Alana  about Adora Sivetak who is a gifted girl with lots of amazing ideas, we watched her on TED talks.

Today

Today I learnt about sustainability. It means to keep things going.

Then we went in 3 groups, one group went with Alana one with Katie and one with Darryn. Then we got a sheet per group and we had to write down all the different ways you could get to school and then score each one out of 20 for which was the best way to get to school.  We had to think about cultural sustainability, economic sustainability, environmental sustainability, and social sustainability.

We did a technology challenge based on an episode from MacGyver. We had to make a contraption that would pull some tools towards us with so we could escape from a bed of concrete!  Here is the link to the starting of MacGyver:

We played chess - I played Olivia and Katie. I won against Olivia, but not Katie.

Then we played a game called All or Nothing it was really fun.

City Council last day of term

Today at Enrich we practised our presentation      ( what we were going to say to the Council ) because today after we practised we went to the council. They liked the presentation of what we wanted to do to Wachner Place but if you're wondering I'm not working on Wachner Place I didn't share what I want to do yet but the others did.

Week 10

Today I played chess with Ella-Rose we didn't finish the game so it was a tie.
We did passion time - if you forgot, I'm doing art (sculpting). I'm making a nest with 2 dragons in it. It's going good. I've done my nest and I've almost done my 1st dragon.
We did our environment projects. If you forgot, my group (Clara Jemmimah Olivia and I) are making a video to put in a motel/hotel about AWSOME Invercargill. The bad thing right now about it is it's not done.
Thats all I did to now.

Week 8 Term 3

Today I played chess with Jemmimah. We didn't have enough time to finish.  Next we did our environment projects:  figuring out what we are going to say to the city council when we present our proposal to make Wachner Place better as well as making a video to display that promotes all the great things about Invercargill.  We played Bullseye again, but this time it was slightly different:  This week the hoops had different points:  1st hoop - 3 points, 2nd hoop - 6 points, 3rd hoop - 9 points and the 4th hoop - 12 points.  You could aim for whatever hoop you wanted to until you got all 4 beanbags into a hoop.  Now I'm off to do passion time - I'm doing sculpting.
