Shhh don't tell.....

the year 8's that I will miss them! We had a great night at the leavers dinner last night. The parents did an amazing job with organising and the behaviour was exemplary (sp?)What can I say the girls are absolutely amazing, they are all going to grow in to beautiful young women. As for the boys, I know I hassle them a bit but when it comes to the crunch they to are gorgeous! check out some of the pics. hopefully in a slideshow.

Phew!

Wow, only 7 more get-ups and it will be the end of the school year. We have done so much this year and we have still got a little more to go. This evening we have our Christmas Concert, which is going to be fantastic.

On Monday the Year 8's went to Titahi Bay Surf Life Saving Clubhouse and had a great time. On Tuesday I went with the Year 7's to Paekakariki Surf Life Saving Club and had a fantastic time. We had a morning filled with finding out about water awareness and safety. Then after morning tea we got changed and had a couple of relays at the park. We then came back and had some relays in the water. It was brilliant. When these had been completed we then had freetime in the water, with restrictions of course. When all of the children were out the lifeguards went in to the rolling waves, so I just had to join them!

Try and add a new post tomorrow to let you know how the concert went.

Wednesday, BEDMAS!!!

Well that is not the way that I add a video to the blog, I will have to have another go. Anyway i have added a video bar.

BEDMAS is a way of figuring out more complex equations B = Brackets, E = Exponents, D = Division, M = Multiplication, A = Addition, S = Subtraction. if you have the following equation

(7 x 3) x (6 + 5) x 0 + 3² – 3 x 3=
you would solve the equations in the brackets first so the above equation would become
21 x 11 x 0 + 3² - 3 x 3
next you would solve the exponents so now the equation is
21 x 11 x 0 + 9 - 3 x 3
Division and multilplcation have the some weighting so you can solve the together
0 + 9 - 9
Lastly solve the addition and subtraction equations and you will have your answer.
= 0

Have fun with your homework.

Busy, busy busy

and this is how it is going to be until the end of the year. There is so much happening in the syndicate and so what we need to do is to remember to stopand breathe. Let's get all of our beach education forms in tomorrow so that our last trip of the year is a good one. Also to make it good we need help in the water.

My first year @ Plim has nearly come to an end. How time flies when you're having fun!
