Athletics day

Yesterday the middle and seniors did athletics. We did a lot of activities including high jump, long jump, 200m sprints 100m sprints. My favourite activity was high jump. I liked it
because it is fun and you don't get sand in your eyes. Also the weather yesterday was awesome and really, really sunny and really, really, really, really, hot about 29 degrees celcius or something like that and it was so hot it was like a desert in New
Zealand! My favourite part was defentley high jump.

Making Butter

Last week room 8 made butter for our topic from milk to ice cream. It was fun and tasty, it was very simple all we needed was cream but the cream had to be left out of the fridge for a couple of hours. We put it in 2 jars then we each split up into 2 groups. Each group made circle and got a jar of  cream and each had five shakes then passed on to the next person. After a few shakes it turned into butter and we poured out the butter milk and spread the butter on bread and each of us had a slice of bread. YUM!
