Science Rotations 28 August

Our final food rotation and the cottage cheese tasted beautiful. Must be all the practice!!

Calendar Art

The theme for this years Calendar Art was "silhouettes". If you look at the art you will see a shadow outline of a face. Combined with the background colour- they look fantastic!

Swimming notice

A notice has been given out about swimming.
The pupils will receive 10 consecutive lessons between 18th-29th November.
Three groups at a time will be instructed by a qualified Baywave swimming instructor.
The pupils will be transported to Baywave by bus.
There will be a charge of $20. The remaining cost is covered by the NZ Water Safety funding.
You may pay this at the school office or contact them to organise installments.
 This is a really exciting opportunity for our children.

Science Rotations 22 August

The rotations involved cooking. One of the groups made cottage cheese. 

How they made it:

- Pour one litre of a milk in a bowl.

- Heat it in a microwave for 4 minutes.

- Add 1/4 teaspoon of citric acid with half a cup of warm water.

- Add the water to the heated milk.

- Watch for the change of colour and the milk curdling.

- Stir the milk to make it curdle.

- Sieve the milk through a cloth and collect your "cheese" form the top.

"Hey it worked!"
