Room 4's Poems
Happiness
Joyful, Fun
Laughhing, Giggling, Smiling
Happiness is yellow like the sun.
Bliss
Sadness by Libby
Sadness is blue like the endless sea,
It tastes like rice bland and tasteless,
It smells like sewage pungent and disgusting,
It looks like a never ending pit,
It sounds like the echo in a dark tunnel,
It feels cold and relentless.

Limerick By Libby
Who previously lost her limb
She developed a hop
She started, she couldn't stop
Her life was since reasonably dim

Enterprise Poem
New ideas are always needed.
Trains. From Steam trains to the Maitangi train.
Entrepreneur
Relating ideas to others
Projects are made and changed to satisfaction
Risks are a big part of Enterprise
I is for ideas that are always needed
Selling is also quite a big part of Enterprise
E is for Enterprise

Using our blog 2
- I have changed the goldfinch picture to a huia - should we leave the huia there or put a class photo or even something else?
- Is there anything we should change about the layout? Do you want/like the counters showing who has visited?
- Yr 8's last year we put a quote up every couple of weeks. Shall we keep this part or change it for something else?

Learning statements
here are some of our ideas
· Learning is a door, the more you learn…..
· Learning is like a swing you have your ups and downs but you’ll be fine.
· Learning is like surfing because it’s hard at the start but when you get better it’s worth it.
· The way to expand
· A key to life it unlocks any doors
· Like petrol for your car
· Your playground so have fun.
· Like a never ending ladder, it just keeps on going
· A shooting star
· Like a circle it never stops
· Like space it never ends
· Like a chest, you have to open it
· Like driving a car you go faster and faster but you need to slow down to turn corners
· Like Edward, it never stops talking
· Like a never ending water bottle, it just keeps giving you stuff
· Like fuel for your mind
· Like a board game going up ladders and down snakes.
