Assembly













Last friday room 15 was showing the audience what we had been learning about. my favorite thing in assembly was everything. And it was funny when oliver put cellotape all over his face we all laughed.











15 News

Due to 15 news not working at Room 15's assembly we decided it would be a good idea to upload it to our blog. In this episode we have a Chief's interview, Class interview and much much more!

I also haven't done a blog post in a while let me update you:

In room 15 we have learnt about:


  • Report writing
  • Semi colons
  • Practising our assembly
  •  And many more things


 We have also been learning about New Zealand Artist FLOX.

Flox creates her own stencils. To make the stencils it takes anywhere between 5 mins to 4 hours. She creates these stencils using card from spices in Auckland.

To create the stencils she uses card and a a surgery scalpel. She went to art school and graduated in 2003 then she did a business course so she could run her business FLOX Before she went to Auckland she was a professional Squash player.
Art has always been in Hayley's blood, she always feels like doing art so she feels like a whole.She gets her inspiration from other artists, especially NZ artist.
Hayley uses spray paint to create her murals. 
She puts the stencil that she has made on the wall or surface.Then sprays paints over the top of it to get the stencilled pattern. 
Flox loves the colour green and uses it all the time. She tries to stay away from black.Because it is hard to blend and there is not much black in nature.
Now you know what we've been up to 

Room 15 Journalist

Room 15 assembly

                                                           Day in the life of Room 15!

Last Friday in week 2 we did assembly. Our theme for assembly was a day in the life of room 15;so younger students could understand what it is like to be in the seniors, better yet room 15.

We performed a growth mindset skit. We also spoke about what we where learning about in reading, maths and writing. The photo above is of me and Matthew reading a report we had written.The report was about Vardon school.

An interesting fact is that we sang a song about the 8 times;we all are still learning our times tables.
"The song was all about them 8's"

One thing that wasn't very good was that 15 news didn't play for us, we don't know why.

The day in the life of room 15 was really awesome!


A day in the life of Room 15

Week 2, Friday.

A day in the life of Room 15 what I found really cool about this assembly was our dance. Our dance was amazing; the song was the best part by far!

I was really disappointed when 15 news didn't work. We spent ages making that. But lucky we were resilient. 

The most interesting part about this assembly was Andrea; she stepped in when Jayda wasn't there.

A Day in the life of room 15 was truly AMAZING!

FLOX visit

On Wednesday the 11th May 2016 Poppy and Rose went and visited the New Zealand artist FLOX aka Hayley king.

 She was creating a mural on the side on the Hamilton library representing the Hamilton gardens.

She graduated from art school in 2003 then went on to complete a short business course. Before becoming an artist she was a professional squash player. 

She creates her own stencils by using card and cutting them out by using a surgery scalpel. Most of her artwork is nature inspired because she grew up in a small town surrounded by nature.

She tries to stay away from the colour black but loves the colour green because most things in nature are green. She uses her stencils and spray paint to create her masterpieces.
