Wow - watch our videos and you will gain an understanding of the cultural diversity in our classroom. Students explain the significance of the mask they have made - either a direct link to their ancestors or a significant figure from their cultural heritage. What a diverse group of students we have and what marvellous masks they have created - such a wide range of materials and techniques were used to create their masks!

Please view and comment on our FIRST EVER MOVIE!!
We composed this movie to enter the HP Technology Upgrade Competition - three minutes was not a lot of time to get our message across and next time we will experiment with adding sounds! We cant wait to make more movies what do you think?

Cardboard tubes, old drawers, curtain rail,
hosing, ball cocks, boxes and wood found new life in the Senior Room this week
as they became marvellous marble rolling 'machines'. The Seniors third
Creativity Challenge of the year was to create a marble roller within the
dimensions 1 metre X 1 metre x 1/2 metre using recycled materials. Rollers
were tested by timing the marbles path from top to bottom. Olly’s roller
was declared the winner with a cunning combination of ball cock vortexes
and ramps - the marble took 21 seconds to complete its course. Second equal
were Dylan, who cleverly converted a chest of drawers into a series of ramps,
and Gemma whose creation looked similar to the hydro-slide at the Aquatic
Centre! Unity created a stunning three layered platform roller with a
combination of mazes which unfortunately was not within specifications but took
out third place. Congratulations to all students who completed the Challenge
all rollers were a testament to student's perseverance and problem solving
skills.
