Tech @ Tamaki College...

Today was our first day of Tech at Tamaki College for 2019. Our Year 7's are at Tech for the first time and are excited to be designing and making wooden toys in their Hard Materials rotation. Year 8A are designing and making clocks in Graphics, and our Year 8B students are designing and making pizza cutters in Metalwork. 

Manu and Zahn's report on the inter-school cricket

On Wednesday the year 7 and 8 team went to Colin Maiden park to compete in the inter-school cricket tournament . Our first game was against Point England they played a fair game but unfortunately we lost. Our second game was against Stonefields. We were really lucky and we won the game by 3 points. Our third game was against Glenbrae. We all had fun but unfortunately we lost this one too. Our fourth game was against St Pius. We got a lot of points and eventually we jumped for joy because we won. Our fifth and final game was against Sylvia Park. We were lucky to beat them because it was a close game! At the end of the day we all received prizes and had fun. We would like to say a special Thank you to Miss Paton and Mrs Emma for looking after us for the day and we would also like to thank Mr Johnston, Mrs Speight and Ms Kirkpatrick for helping us with the transport.

First Day of Tech for Year 7/8

Jasmine thought the first day of Graphics was awesome because she learnt about a new website called 'Cool Text' that allows you to make eye catching headings. Dontalian thought Food Tech was lots of fun because we learnt how to make a healthy fruit salad.
