Year 7 & 8 Netball

Yesterday two teams from our senior syndicate went to represent GTS for a Netball tournament at the St Johns Netball Centre, we versed multiple schools such as Stanhope, St Heliers, Sylvia Park etc and our girls team placed 2nd as well as our boys team placing 3rd. It was a great experience overall and both of our teams did an amazing job! Here is a photo from the tournament.

Wood Works

Last term our all Year 8 class had Wood Works. We are currently learning how to construct a treasure box, we have also learnt how to cut our pieces of wood properly as well as the proper names for all of the tools that we have used in our sessions, in Term 3 we will still be working in this class to finish our boxes but here are some photos from the progress that has happened so far!

Science

Since Term 2 Room 11's focus has been science/states of matter. We've done several experiments including making Raro Blocks, Nebula Jars etc, yet for the past week Room 11 as well as all of the other classes have been working on projects to present in our GTS Science Fair. We've been working on projects such as Rock Candy, Borax Crystals etc, here are some photos from our science experiments!

States Of Matter

In Room 11 we learnt about the States Of Matter, which are LIQUID, SOLID & GAS the properties include SHAPE, VOLUME, ARRANGEMENT & INTERACTION. We learnt what all of these properties mean and how they play a part in the States Of Matter. 

Here are a few photos from what Room 11 learnt!

Cycle Safety

Two weeks ago, our senior syndicate were all given sessions to learn about Cycle Safety. Friday and Monday were the times that Room 11 would meet up, in our first meeting our instructors Sarah & Akari taught us about all of the checks that we had to do before putting on our helmets, grabbing a bike and riding a bike. 

Here's a few photos from when we learnt about Cycle Safety!
