Howick Historical Trip
An amazing and educational day was had by us all! Ranging from experiencing the rules in an olden day classroom, an archaeological dig and raupo hut creations, we all enjoyed the day and left with many new ideas and understandings about life in the past.

Welcome to 2011!
Hi Room 18! Welcome to our class blog space for 2011.
This will be your first posting area and you will use this as a place to introduce yourselves. You have all read the class blogging rules and understand that our thoughts, ideas and information are available to be read from anywhere in our world.
You can publish without a Google account, but it's best if you sign up with one. If you publish without a Google account, you MUST include your name. If your name is not included in your post it will not be published. Please include your first name when posting without an account.
So, now it is time to write a brief introduction about yourself. Include these things:
Your first name, and your year level.
Some family information – for example who you live with – no names please.
You may wish to name the area you live in. For example – Mt Albert, Sandringham, Mt Eden, Balmoral.
If you have links to other countries tell us about them. Maybe you have lived in other countries?
Some of your interests.
Set yourself some big goals for 2011 – they can be class related, sport related or even outside of school. What is it that you really want to achieve this year? We can look at these and aim to achieve them!
I am really looking forward to our blogging journey and can’t wait to read your comments.
Let’s get blogging Room 18!!

Turangawaewae - Share your introductions.
Room 18 are currently preparing for their final speech for this term.
They have all made amazing progress in their understandings of what makes a great speech. The concept for these speeches is Turangawaewae, in which children explore their own family history, culture, origin and what makes themselves so unique.
Tūrangawaewae is one of the most well-known and powerful Māori concepts. Literally tūranga (standing place), waewae (feet), it is often translated as ‘a place to stand’. Sourced from: http://www.teara.govt.nz
In this post Room 18, please write the final version of your introduction to your Turangawaewae speech.
I know already they are fantastic, now share them with the world.
Note: Remember to not post your surnames into the blog for Internet safety.
