Trail Blazer In Space Poem

TRAILBLAZER IN SPACE POEM

Anticipation,

The Count-down started,

My Adrenalin is on the rise,

The Ground starts Vibrating ,

I am off for better,

or worse...

Isolation,

Silence fills the air around me,

I catch a glimpse of mother,

Excitement and hope fill my heart,

This nightmare may finally be over,

I am going home.

Destination,

Adrenaline turns to fears,

I am not home,

I am in a concrete jungle,

Disappointment is all I feel...

Time hasn’t changed We have changed over time,

Nothing is going to change if we don’t start Changing It.

Dance Styles

This term we are learning how people use the arts to communicate. We have investigated the characteristics of different dance styles, we also practiced our note taking skills. We experimented with each style ourselves, and created our own dance sequences.

Science Road Show Reflection

On the 14th of March Ruma J went for a 35 minute drive to Grey High for a Science Road Show. It was supported by Science Alive!  and Ministry of Education. In the first show they talked about liquid nitrogen and dry ice. They got a flower and dipped it in the cup of liquid nitrogen. The host pulled it out again and all the petals started to shatter all around the table. That was my favorite of the 1st show. We stayed there for 2 shows. I enjoyed the 2nd show the best. The Road show hosts looked at 1 drop of pond water under a microscope and little tiny bugs were creeping around in the water. But from our eyes it was just 1 drop of clean water! Between the 2 shows we saw we had a 30 minute break to look at lots of little exhibits around the room. My favourite one was looking under a huge microscope and seeing lots of little samples of interesting items. The downside I had that there were lots of people and it was hard to see all of the exhibits I wanted to. I had a really fun time and I'm looking forward to seeing it again!

Logo Creation

Recently in Ruma J, we have been leaning about money. We have been using a website called banqer. Banqer is a bank simulator that is an online fake bank account but has all the real life bank features. The class has now been designing some logos for different companies that help the school, class, and community. My business partner named Prakriti and this is our logo. Our company is called K&K LTD. It provides a reminding service for the whole school. The reason why we decided to use these colors is because our company is associated with trust and loyalty. the black lines may seem to look like a diamond, but it is actually a K's turned facing each other. The reason why we named our company K&K is because I like the name Khloe, and Prakriti likes the name Kylie.

This is a company that we have just started. The company name is called K&K Blossoms. The reason why we chose these colors is because purple represents the loyalty and security in our company that you can trust. Every 2 days we sweep the blossoms off the concrete to make the community and school tidy.


This is our last company. It is called K&K Kares. This company provides a friendly helping hand to the school by checking the role of how many people there are today. I hope you like all three of our logos.
