Senior Team Technology Electives

Innovation and Collaboration Wow what a fantastic week!  The senior teachers have been blown away by the creative thinking of our students. The children have been designing their own products to make and sell at the school fair.  Earlier in the week they began to think up designs for a product using the technology design process.  On Tuesday they made their prototype and shared this with the team. Suggestions were considered, problem solving took place and students then adapted their ideas. Packaging, pricing, materials, technique and marketing were all considered.  We look forward to seeing what amazing products are produced for our school fair!  The slime groups Poi making Pencil holders Bags and pouches Teamwork Door snakes

Keeping Active at the Edgar Stadium

Students had a great time and participated in a variety of game skills at last week's Skills and Drills session at Edgar Stadium. It was 'all go' and I was so impressed with the energy and enthusiasm from the senior and senior model teams.  The tutors from the polytechnic were awesome.   It was nice to hear their comments about how polite the children from George Street were and how well they followed instructions.
