Smashed

Half-way through term 3 already, time goes by so quickly you need to make the most of your time.

Today at Enrich I finished a planet of the Solar System. It was Mercury the most boring, dull planet in the Solar System. It doesn't even have an atmosphere which means no weather. I have now done three planets.

You may be wondering why I used 'Smashed' as my title. It is because I played Darryn (my teacher) at chess and I got smashed, not physically but mentally. And on the third of September I go to Ashburton for my chess.

And last of all today a boy called Miro who also goes to Enrich, his sister came in and talked about her life in the.............. CIRCUS. Her name was Lauren. She showed us videos of her doing acts in the circus. The circus goes around all New Zealand and it's called the Aoteroa Circus. She is really talented.

Until next time, see ya.

Migrations Workshop

"Who knows about migrations?" Darryn asked. I was clueless as I had not much of an idea of what migrations were but I had heard of them before. 

Let's go back a bit. Everyone had to pick a workshop, it was either Time- with Katie, Writers studio- with Nicola, or Migrations - with Darryn. Anyway, today I learnt  about migrations. Migrations can be as small as 40 kids moving to another school or 1000s of animals moving to another country. 

One of the tasks Darryn gave to us was to put these pictures in categories. I learnt that so many of the pictures to do with migrating have so much in common with other things, For example protesting about refugees and a passport have so much in common if you really think about it. Until next time see-ya.
