New Zealand Symphony Orchestra

Yesterday four members from the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra came to our school to do a performance. Here is a picture of one their performances. It was very entertaining and my favorite part of the performance was when they did Goldilocks and the Three Bears as a musical. Thanks to Mark Santy for organising them to come at such short notice.

Creating Enterprise

Room 7’s Term 4 inquiry is about “Growing Enterprise.” We have to create a product to sell at the Week 7 community evening. The product has to do with outdoor living. People have been planning to create many different things such as bird houses, wind chimes, flower pots, bird feeders and lots more. 

We have been doing a lot of thinking about how well these might sell and how much to sell them for. We would love you to leave a comment on whether you would buy these items and an idea of how much you would pay for them.

Working in Room 7

This is Callum V and Macca doing their inquiry. They are making friendship bracelets for the market. We are working in groups and coming up with ideas to sell. We have to think carefully about how much things cost to make and how much we will sell them for.
