Buried village

Yesterday we went to the buried village. It was pretty awesome we saw some whares that had been buried in the tarawera eruption, saw lots of tools, dinner sets, medical jars that had been saved after the eruption.  We learnt about the history of tarawera and the volcanic eruption.  We will post pictures soon

A visit to McLarens falls.

I had an exciting trip out with my friends to McLarens falls which is just out of Tauranga. It was a beautiful day and perfect for feeding the ducks with bread that where hanging out in the pond. The falls. Where really beautiful and it was interesting to see the rock formations that were carved out by the water over many many years. It was so cool to get out and about.

A mini-Me!

I have been working hard on my IPP board. I would love to have work experience as a member of The Countdown supermarket. I have made a little model of myself wearing the Countdown uniform and will add new costumes to my board throughout the year. I am very proud of my work so far. 
Check it out!

Making a wooden car.

At the moment I am putting a lot of hard work into making a Coupe (car) at woodwork. I have been measuring, chiseling the wood and sawing using a vice to cut the wood into the right shapes. We have  been sanding the wood to make it smooth. We are all making our own cars and I am so happy with my design. 



I can't wait to see how it turns out!
