It has been a very full on last couple of weeks with everything going on: Hockey and football tournaments, artsplash choir, spellathon and of course Speeches, Wearable Arts and Student Inquiries.
Speeches
The quality of speeches this year has been superb. With many students having spent a lot of time crafting and practicing their speeches it was great for the students to be able to stand so confidently in front of the class and present their topics. With such a great crop of speeches it was a hard choice to pick the students who would advance further and represent Room 13 in the semi finals.
The speech semi-finalists from Room 13 were:
Year 5 - Kai and Tessa
Year 6 - Macey and Riley
The speech finalists from Room 13 are:
Tessa and Macey
Great work girls and good luck!!!!
Wearable Arts
The students have been busily finishing their costumes and rehearsing their dance moves for the show. With the staging finally up and lighting to go up on the weekend the students and their costumes will shine next week. It will be fantastic!
Student Inquiries
The student inquiries are the end result of a lot of hard work this term in studying their chosen 'lost civilisation'. There is a wide range of chosen civilisations from Ancient Rome and Greece to the Vikings, Atlantis and even the Easter Islands. Each student has been working hard to keep up to date with the classroom work that has seen students exploring their civilisation and others in greater depth. With most students having completed publishing their work the inquiries are now proudly displayed for all to see.
