BEDAZZLED

We went to the Museum to see the Bedazzled Exhibition. Our teachers name was Imogen. There was a mirror there where I could shake hands with myself. We had to do competitions, in one of them I could see myself in it. In one of them I looked really short. I was so lucky because my dad came with us. All the mirrors looked funny, we got a spoon and I was upside down. We had such a great day at Bedazzled.

We went to the Museum to see the exhibition called Bedazzled. When our class got there we sat on a chess board mat then we went to the Bedazzled room. Imogen was the person who taught us. The first mirror we saw was one that you can move levers so you can change your shape. Then we looked at all the other mirrors .Our favourite mirror was looking into infinity.

The Mask Parade

On October 12th we had our big night, on Friday. We got into our lines then we started to walk. My mum and dad and sisters were watching me on the sideline. Our blue boxes were shining because we put some glitter on our box. After the singing we got our chime bars ready, after the whistle blows six times we started to bang 1, 2, 3 times on the chime bars. Then Room 9 did it. It was really cool. I felt happy because it was my first mask parade. We all had to wear black clothes. We finished where we started. The next day we rang up Tanya and she said we came first!

Nelson Science Fair

Room 13 did very well at the recent Nelson Schools Science Fair. Our entry 'How Disposable Are They?' gained an Education for Sustainablility Award: 3rd place. Our project investigated how long different types of disposable plates took to biodegrade. We buried some plastic, paper and potato plates and observed their changes over a period of time. It was very interesting to observe:
The potato plate took 7 weeks to completely biodegrade, the paper plate had changed quite a lot in 8 weeks, and the plastic plate hadn't changed at all! We think people should not use plastic plates if they are just going to throw them away - they will never break down in the landfill.

On Thursday the 11th of October we went in Helen’s car to the Nelson Science Fair prizegiving. We had to go to the hall in Richmond School. When we walked up to get the certificate Helen took two pictures of us and when we were getting the prize. Then we got back in Helen’s car and then we went back home.
