Sherbet Experiment

Today for science we got to make Sherbet. The ingredients were Icing Sugar, Baking Soda, Citric Acid and tartaric acid. Mrs Drummond made us taste each ingredients by itself and the only thing that tasted nice was the Icing Sugar but I still wouldn't go around eating Icing Sugar. It was hard to get it just right because my group all had different tastes they liked. I loved doing it and I can't wait to do another experiment. 

Graduation Mass

Yesterday the whole school had to go to mass because it was the Graduation mass. It was mainly about the year 6's but it was also about going to the next year level. The year 6's had a big part in it because they had to make a dance and some of they had to do special things in the mass. I liked it because the year 6's gave the year 5's a leadership candle. The candle was blue with a green ribbon on it. I can't wait for next year when i'm year 6 and get to do the dance.

Topic Passport

Over the term we have been learning about New Zealand bands. We had to do activities from a passport. The passport has 6 different categories and you have to do at least one activity from each category. The goal is to get 200 points and the activities you can do gives you 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50. Right now I have 165 and need to do 1 more category. If you're wondering why I have 165 not 160 or 170 it's because you can get bonus points if you work really hard on it but you can also get minus points if it's not a high enough standard. My favourite activity I did was the design your own album cover for a real album. I chose the album cool bananas by DD Smash. I have loved doing it and I can't wait to do it again next year.
