Email To King's

Dear Oscar,

Our names are Caleb, Earl, Oliver and Khristian.  We live in Auckland and are in Room 21 at Elm Park School.

Thank you Oscar for taking the time to send the letter to us.  It was very  interesting to read.  We learnt a lot about recycling and pollution.  We never knew that there were huge holes in Ozone Layer and that we could get sunburnt in just 5 minutes.

In our class we have been learning about soil and how important it is to the Environment.  We have learned that soil is used in many different ways. Some of the uses for soils are that is soaks up water which helps regulate floods.  It is alsu used for storing carbon which helps to modify what is in the atmosphere.  Also incredibly the bacteria in it is used in over 60% of cancer drugs!  Did you know that there is more bacteria in a teaspoon of soil than there are people on Earth.   Scientists have only figured out 1% of those bacteria.  The other 99% bacteria could be the cure for all the world’s diseases.

Thank you for reading our letter.  

Yours Sincerely

Oliver, Khristian, Earl and  Caleb B.

Year 6 Team Building




At the end of this Term we took part in a Year 6 Team building challenge in the Auditorium.  We had to work together to build a bridge that was wide enough for a ball to pass through and strong enough to hold a dictionary.

Learning Reflection
I am learning to write in third person.
I'm proud of me being able of writing in third person.
It can be tricky to write in third person when I'm use to writing in first person.
My next step in is to master writing in first, second and third person.
