Trip To The Robotics Lab

On Saturday 28th November 2015, some students from Glenbrae School went on a trip to the company OMG Tech, we got to explore around like things that can work and things that does not work.When I got to school their were students already their,so we had to wait at the hall for Miss Elia and Mrs Addcock.

Firstly, when we arrived at the OMG Tech their were heaps of People and students from other schools.Miss Elia and Mrs Addcock had to wait in line but they told us to go and explore.

Next, they called everyone of us to go and sit on the stairs to give instructions.The groups had to go in order like whoever is in Group 1, 2, 3 and 4 they have to go to their extension.

I was in group 2 and we had to go to 3D printing then we had to go unmaking, Coding.

After coding we had lunch before we moved onto the next one.Our next activity was science and we blowed balloons and putted a stick through the balloon.

Finally our last activity was Robotics, we were asked to get into partners but I didn’t have any partner to I asked for help and their was a guy who came and helped me.I was trying to make to the red line but I didn’t because I made 2 turns before it went pass.

I had fun because got to learn about How Robotics Work.

On Thursday the 12th November 2015 , the Senior School had a trip to Star dome. We went there to learn about other planets.When we got their we ate our lunch and Room 7 & 8 went to the space room. Then 9 & 10 had flying fox.It was fun because we went and played on the playground.

First we went inside the Star dome observatory and their was a guy named Tim.He took us to the space room to tell us more information about the planets. Then asked us who was the first man to visit the Moon?Neil Alden Armstrong.After that we went to the Foyer to look around the planets and the Spaceships.

Next we went to the planetarium to watch a movie called Wonders to the universe. We sat on the chairs and we started watching.At the end of the movie he showed where the planets are and their was a shape like a scorpion.Then he told us to find the planets and they were small.After that he said that's the end of our movie.It was funny because Mrs Pome'e and Mrs Tofa were Sleeping.

I felt happy because I had fun on the flying fox and I learnt heaps about the Planets.

Junior Warriors

A few days ago, we had a Rugby League Tournament  organised by the Junior Warriors Team from our school. They were not the real Junior Warriors but they were just like them.
After setting up the field, the referees, score keepers and the timekeeper got ready. There were 5 games played altogether and there were five teams. The teams were  Bulldogs, Rabbitohs, Broncos, Warriors and Junior Warriors. Each team went head to head and everyone had a lot of fun.
