Wonder Project Final Rocket Launch

 3, 2, 1 launch


Talofa Lava Bloggers! 
Today I will be blogging about our wonder project and our final launch. Term 3 &4 we have been working with a scientist, our ambassador Melissa to work towards building a rocket. My groups name was Incredible Thinkers and I was with Faith, Anthony, and Yousuf. Our first test flight we used a plastic 1.5 litre bottle with the top of another bottle to be our nose cone. We also used cardboard to make some fins for the rocket and stuck them on with some hot glue. It was fine though because if we did it fast it wouldn't melt the plastic. 

Our rocket didn't go very far so we made some modifications for our final flight. We made the fins bigger and we used a different bottle for the nose cone. When we went outside we waited for our turn we launched our rocket but then it nose dived straight down to the ground. We added 250mls and we used a pump to add pressure to the water and that's how we launched our rocket. 

My groups rocket only went 14 metres and the furthest one went 35.6 metres. 
Maybe next time to make our rocket go further we could add some weight and add some more fins. I still loved the rocket and it was really fun!
Here is the video of our rockets launch, and some photos!

Garden to table

 Mmmm, Vegetables

Fakalofa Atu Bloggers! Happy Niuean Language week. Today I will be blogging about how we grew some delicious vegetables and then made some even better Cauliflower cheese. In the start of term three we planted seedlings and me and Hosanna planted some Cauliflower and Brocoflour. Over time they grew and grew into big delicious veggies. We cut them off the big stem then the following day, people from the gardening group and environmental group help make some food. Miss Daly helped make the Cauliflower cheese then we all had some! It was delicious and it made me like Cauliflower. In the end everyone had some and most people liked it and some didn't really. My favourite part about doing this was that we grew our own vegetables and turned it into a delicious meal!
Hope you enjoyed my blog! Blog you later! Here are some photos!








Film Festival

 3, 2, 1 ACTION

Talofa Lava bloggers! Today I will be blogging about this years Film Festival. This year because of Covid-19 it was hard to come up with some ideas and film, also because of bad weather. We got into groups of five or six and brainstormed some ideas. This years theme was Kindness. I think that the theme was very relevant because of all that has happened. All the schools entered two - three but because ours were great we submitted all four. We went to St Lukes Cinema to watch all the other schools films and a bonus we got a free Choc top or a free popcorn! It was fun and cool, getting to see all these new and funny films! Bye!

Here are our four films!
