The Wrap

The entire community got together to celebrate a wonderful year and have a bit of a sing song.

It is relatively informal, with families sitting and singing together.

It's also a time where we farewell our Year 6 graduates and they have an opportunity to say a few words! The Year 6 students were fantastic!

The other week some kids from Matariki and Mahutonga went to Massey University to see what inventions they have been using to do their research. We went to different labs. We discovered that people make their own 3D printers.

Trip to Cooking School

My Movie from Matariki on Vimeo.

We have been interested in innovations in food and cooking.

At the french cooking school Cordon Bleu we saw food sculptures made out of chocolate, sugar and other stuff. At the Cordon Bleu cooking school, we learnt that the teachers have the long hats and the students have the short hats. At Cordon Bleu we learnt where all the students cook and study. You are allowed to start the cooking school when you are sixteen but they recommend when you have finished university. By Zoe, Emma and Molly

WBS has got talent

Today the student council ran a talent show. It was fun and awesome. There were musical instruments, singers, dancers and more. The judges rated the talented children and added the ratings up to see who would make it into the finals. The prize was a chocolate fish. By Louie
