Our egg drop challenge

Room 20 were given a co-operative challenge to complete.It was an egg drop. We were a limited amount of resources they were 8 ice block sticks,a strip of cello tape,10 straws and obviously a egg. In my team was Tamara and Kalim.

Our team was thinking of a unbreakable design so Kalim started to make a plan. Eventually we got up to the part of making it. We built a barrier around the egg using the sticks and straws so that it would absorb its impact. Then we used the tape to make it all stick together.

We had finally completed the task. Our egg was ready to be dropped. Kalim stood in front of the tarpaulin. When it dropped we quickly went to check if it had made it. We were all excited when we saw that our egg had survived. Our end result was really good and I hope next time it can be even better.

The Prize Giving

Yesterday I was so excited and nervous at the same time. It was Pt England School's prize giving. I did not get a prize but I was going to sing a song with Kalim and Sam. The worst thing was that at the beginning I had to do a solo for the first verse.



We all entered the hall and sat down the first group to perform was the Kapa Haka group they were amazing. They sang beautifully I was amazed. It was time for me,Sam and Kalim turn to sing I was so nervous I could feel my legs shaking. 


My favourite was the team 4 boys who did a remix and added different types of dance like Tectonic and Hip hop.



At the end of the day I was proud of myself for getting up and singing in front of a huge audience for the first time. But I was also disappointed in getting two nominations for rugby team spirit and sportswoman but not getting a certificate.... there is always next year!!
