The start of the Pecha Kucha presentations

Today we started the Pecha Kucha presentations on change. They were fantastic and I felt very proud of all the students hard work!

Sheamus and Thomas set a very high standard entertaining and informing us all about the changes in gaming, from Playstations to Wii.
Logan and Regan provided a lot of details about the changes to the telephone. Below is a little snip from Ben, Luke and Sam's presentation about the changes to portable music devices. Let us know what you think!

End Ball Vrs Room 8

The next challenge from Room 8 was to play End Ball. Three different teams took to the court. There was also another challenge made, to be the best supporting class on the side line. Room 2 took along some instruments from Brazil to help cheer our teams on. It was a fantastic afternoon challenge, alot of fun. Take a look...

Now we need to think of our next challenge.
How about a spelling bee or a maths challenge? What ideas do you have?
