Future Aspirations

Today we have heard from two people, Marcus Winter AKA the Sandman and also Louis Gordon Latty. Marcus was a sand making artist, while Louis was a basketball player. The man that introduced them to us was a special that was welcome to be at our school. His name was Andrew Patterson and he collects and connects with a lot of talented people, Mostly it is on Radio Live where he works. They said there talks and shared with us how they became to be what they were now.


First off went Marcus, it started when he was in primary school and on his report it said that Marcus was a slow writer. It was when he became a bit older he started being a street artist, and making sand art. Then he changed his thinking, he wanted to show off his art on one of the big fancy cruise ships. It started to become his work in the cruise ships. He lived in one of the Sydney hotels in Australia.

WW1 Timeline

In one of our Zeal Zone groups, Miss Moala talks to us about the timeline's about what happened in WW1. We were all given a timeline, which we grab information from, and put it into a way which we can show. The timeline we had study was October 16th 1914.

Values

                                                  VALUES

This is important to me because I have to respect people around me, when i’m walking around the community, at home, During school and everywhere else I go. I think that respect is one important value to anyone because we listen to what someone says, we take in on what someone has to say and help them if they need help. The person I like to respect mostly is my mum, she was the one who helped me with making my lunch and home work.

Polyfest

Yesterday was an exciting day, because team 5 took a trip to Polyfest in Manaku. There were a a lot of schools who came. When we entered in we sat down in front of some ASB crew. Suddenly out of no where our school and the other schools saw camera men crowed someone. As they got closer to us we could see a person with a black jacket.

It was John Key! I'm sure some people were still labor fans, so they wouldn't of liked seeing John Key. John Key gave a quick speech and then he got interviewed by ASB crews and others aswell. We set out to go to our activities to learn new things. My favorite thing was visiting the AUT presentation. They showed us and talked to us about the making of games and 3D printing.

First off they showed us some metal made form the 3D metal printer. Also not to mention a normal 3D printer that could do a brilliant job at making material and also detailed 3D products. That was the best thing that I liked. But for there games they seemed to take it to the next level by making the person in the game. These headsets were called Oculus Rift.

It was mainly those things he told us. It actually taught me a lot about what skills we needed to make it into a tech place and how we get them. That was the reason why I liked that Activity.
