Tamaki College - Experience Day

Today the year 8's went to Tamaki College to experience secondary school. We had our own year 9 timetable with classes on them. This was a great experience. In science with Mr Stoddard and Mr Singh, we were learning about static energy/electricity. Static electricity is a contrast of electric charges inside or on the surface of a material. In our math classes we had Mr Jones and we played a game of battle ships and learnt about coordinate grids. In our English class with Mr Stevenson, we were finding visual images to make connections with new vocabulary. In our PE class we were playing turbo touch with Mr Moyes. 

A big thank you to Tamaki College for hosting us. We all had a fun time and a great day of learning.

Food Tech - Meat Pie Fillings

Today for food tech we made meat pie fillings. In food tech we made our filling for our meat pie. I was working collaboratively with my group. We managed to complete this task successfully. It was a long process of steps but we finally made our fillings. I can't wait for next week as we finish off our makings of our pies. 

Food Tech - Large Quiche

Today for our food technology we were making large quiche. This was easy because last week we made mini quiches. I got to prepare the fillings with my group Nazella, Sakae, and Oh Hsen. The ingredients we used for our fillings were spinach, onions, cream cheese, tomatoes, and cheese. It was a long process but we finally made our quiche.
