Technology Challenge

For our school wide technology challenge we decided to make a pulley that would raise a flag up a flag pole. We discussed what our brief was and what specifications were needed before embarking on our design process.  I am very impressed with the designs that Room 8 has come up with. We have some very inventive students!!

Memories of year one.

I liked year one because Mrs Louw taught me a lot.I'm also very good at hand writing thanks to all of the teachers I have ever had in cockle bay school.In year 1 I have learned hand writing and now I'm good at it.

The past in year 1.


Year one is amazing because it brings back lots of memories and i loved learning with Miss Harder and  Miss Louw. After a month later I moved over to Mrs Gunderson's class in room 28.

Memories Of Year One




In year one I remember painting pictures and changing the day of the week on the calender.

I liked all the fun learning we did.I liked how we learned to be independent.I liked working with all my friends and be cooperative.I liked all the artistic fun art we did and painting lazy eights.I learned to use my manners and respect teachers.I remember sitting in the mat with my friends that are still my friends now.I like Mrs Harder and she taught me well and now I know how to write read and solve equations. Year 1 is just the beginning.
