Finally, the wait is over. We’re back to homework and lots of reading and we are all exited to see what Mrs Vincent has in store for us. Well, we’re back just in time for Term 3 to start and we already have library books so none of us are missing out on a chance to read.
This term, we are doing wearable arts which are costumes made out of recyclable materials. The topic is going to be announced today. Our ball is coming up soon and all of the Intermediates are really excited.
Already we have got our 100 Need to Know Words (Part 2) spelling list. We started reading Private Peaceful by Michael Morpurgo last term and are continuing it this term. We’re also getting ready to do cross country on Thursday because it was postponed last term as it was raining on the day it was supposed to be on.
Today, Tegan and I decided to sit at the teacher’s desk for a day so we asked if we could. Mrs Vincent said yes, then she said, “I will think about it,” but we sat there anyway and it was awesome because we felt like teacher.
The topic has just been announced. This term we are learning about the Aztecs. The only things we know about the Aztecs already is that they invented chocolate (Ricki-Jean knows this from the Probe Reading Test). Matthew has a book about the Aztecs and knew that they had tall temples with zig-zag steps.

(Established 2009) This is the history of our Year 7 and 8 classes in Huia 1 at The Gardens School, NZ. We wrote for ourselves, our families and friends and for anyone who wanted to know what life was like at our school. From 2009 to 2013, Huia 1's teacher was Mrs Vincent. 1n 2014, classes changed and Huia 1 became Miss Murphy's room, with Mrs Vincent teaching on Thursday afternoons in Term 1. This blog has now ceased regular publication but is a record of our time together in Huia 1.
