Animal health put on their experimental scientist caps

Animal health is a group that is a part of a agronomist business called "Seed's r us".  This app is to help farmers and see what we have been doing to help them believe that we are the right people for them.  The app was created by me and a partner for our group to see how our tests and experiments are going.  

Here is the link below for the Animal health app.

The history of Makaraka school

This is a slide about Makaraka school and how it has changed over the years, and what are the differences now.  Makaraka school is very unique to most schools because of its diversity in learning. 

Makaraka school has experienced some big changes over the years and is yet to experience more as technology gets even more modern and the easier thing gets.  Makaraka school is a great school with a diverse learning curriculum to others.

The art of inspiration

This is a poster about a quote that inspires me and I hope will inspire others if they concentrate hard enough on their own inspirational quote.  I wish we could be kind to others and do what we love to do, not be someone else and have fun along the way.

I hope everyone has a quote of their own that they look at when they need that extra boost of belief.  People should be their own person but it's sad because so many of us are not.  we are our own person so we should be that person because no one else is going to fill those shoes.

Bad day turned good

This is a slide about what I do to cheer myself up after a bad day.  I hope other people can benefit from this as this may help us to become better people and look after each other.  People in our world right now are not as cheerful and happy as they used to be now days our world has become full of rotten, useless, no good people who have nothing to give but find ways to be lazy and express their pain by hurting someone else or even themselves.  

 Our world needs help to start become a safer place to be.  If I can start something that can help people benefit from it. Even though i'm only ten, imagine what everyone else can do.  Hopefully our world can become a place everyone wants to be and look after each other.  Just IMAGINE!!  

Central School Play

This is a letter I wrote to Central school Thanking them for inviting our school to watch their school play.  

Our school did a play a year ago and it was called Mahakiro. So they decided to invite our school.

Our school had a great time and enjoyed the play heaps.

Dear Staff and Students of Central School,

I am writing this letter to thank you for inviting our whole school to come and watch your school play.  
I am a year 6 student and it is my last year at Makaraka School. I was very lucky to have watched your play this year
as I would not be able to watch it if it was next year, Thank you.  This is us - Anei Matou was a great topic to base your play
on as it had a great story behind it. Our school was excited by the performance and learning more about your school.

I liked the thoughts and effort you put into the play, because it showed how much you cared  about your school and the
performance. I found the change in your school over the years part of the play told me more and I learned more from it.  
The different topic through the scenes was really interesting and I enjoyed it. Expressing the different and great things
about your school. You effort and commitment ment a lot in terms of acing

The props were just amazing as well as the costumes how could you have made giant Captain Cook’s and Kiwa’s was
awesome.  Your narrators were great and I liked the way you shared around the microphone. The performance on stage
and the way you remembered it all was great and I know how it feels when you have to remember lots of things (Stressful).  
Your singing was outstanding. You are all very good performers from year 0-6.

Your school showed a great amount of courage and Kia mia ( standing proud ) for your school. Well done for your
performance it was a great experiences for our school and gave us more of an understanding and the background behind
your school.  Courage is the commitment to begin without any guarantee of success. Keep it up you should be very proud.
I hope you perform more plays over the year. You are on the way to fame.

Kind regards

Hannah

Introduction

The lights and the sounds of the city have always excited me.  But this was different. It was more like deathly and unknown to any one of Behala.  Hidden away unseen, unnoticed, alone it had been left for years and years. Twisted amongst the ever green it lay there with no one watching it slowly falling to pieces.  It’s still alive but barely breathing.

Your eyes because glazed over and tears ran down the slides of your cheeks yours eyes looking one side to the other.  You have to bit your lip tightly in attempt to hide any sound that wanted to escape from your mouth. The house was just heartbreaking, how can it have gotten so run down.   We are the ones who have done it. We talk about homelessness and yet here we are looking at rundown places like these. This house was the one to pay the price. Coming home is one of the most beautiful things, remember that.  

It felt like a graveyard.  A shrill cry echoed in the mist.  Inside it must have been like a prison were there were no visitors I mean who want to visit a place like that.    Imagine if your parents tell you you’re moving across the country and thats the house your living in, that’s how lucky we are everyone these days takes everything for granted. Maybe someday we will live in a great world where everyone is grateful for everything our manners would be impeccable our oceans would be clean our environment would be even more beautiful just imagine .  People are not as lucky as us we should take that into consideration. Because the things you take for granted are the things others are praying for.

The only one in New Zealand

On the September 12 wednesday four yr 6 students from makaraka school went to Eastwood hill national arboretum of New Zealand.  One of the students was me we all with other schools learnt about the art of photography and got to take photos of our own.  We were lucky enough to have the opportunity.

We are going to the mindlab to edit our photos next term.  We will then be using the best photos and putting them on postcards to sell in tourist shops.  The money will go towards Eastwood hill and the Aurora programme.  

We are the problem of today

This is my speech for 2018.  Our topic how can I contribute to the world to make it a better place.  My speech was about how everyone can do little things to become better people.  Becoming better people is a big step towards improvement.

When we wrote our speeches we had to include FEARRR a method to help us.  WE are learning more and more about writing and confidence, and speeches are one way of how they are going to get us achieving those goals to become not only better people but have the confidence in ourselves to be better people.

This is a presentation I did my speech on and it gave me ideas to help me write my speech it includes the FEARRR method as well.

Agricultural scientists

This is about our group greenhouse and how we are contributing to the world today.  We are looking at how we can make our world a better place and why we can make it a better place.  We are looking after the world around us you should too.

We are here to help our planet and right now our class is contributing to our world.  We want to look after our environment because we know New Zealand is very lucky compared to other places.   Why should we be caring for our environment? take a moment to think and then make a change.
