Soup

 This week I got put into the cooking workshop.

On the first day, we talked about some hazards in the kitchen so we would be safe.

On the second day, we got all the vegetables and prepared the soup.

On the third day in the morning, we put the soup on the element so it could cook and at lunchtime it was ready.

The part that I liked the most was preparing the soup.


My Dave Dobbyn report

 Dave’s full name is David Joseph Dobbyn and he was born in Auckland on the 3rd of January 1957. He has two children, one of them is 11 and his name is Eli and his daughter Grace is 13.   His wife is Anneliesje. He went to the local Catholic School Sacred Heart College.


Dave Dobbyn and The Herb’s released one of their hit songs ‘Slice of heaven’ in 1986. He made it into the top 10 songs for his song ’’Welcome Home’’ which was released in 2006, he won the best songwriter of the year for it. He is famous for his music career that he started off in mid-1976 continuing to the present.


I chose Dave Dobbyn because he is one of my mum’s favourite singers. Before his career started in high school he had serious stage fright and stayed at the back of the group and sang with his eyes closed.

My workshop reflection

 During Term 2 and 3 the WhetÅ« students have had the opportunity to be involved in a range of different workshops.


The workshop that I have enjoyed participating in the most has been the drama one because we played if you love me honey give me a smile.


The new learning that I have learnt is that you can make string into a pompom and then attach a beak and a tail and turn it into a bird.


What I have most enjoyed about the workshops is that we don’t have to do the one that we don’t want to do because we can pick what we do.


 I am interested in learning more about how chemical reactions work so I can de an expert at science.

My cross country reflection

 This year I participated in the NPS Cross Country held at school on the Ngatea Domain.  I ran in the 10 age group.


I am most proud of my placing because I came 3rd and I normally come 4th and I also made it into HP cross country.


I think my effort towards our training at school was really good because this year I trained really hard.


I showed the Learning Power of Resilience by keeping on going because I had a really bad stitch.
