Wow, what a fantastic day Friday was at Swimming Sports. I have caught some of the action from the day on my digital camera and my video camera.

Research for Wk 3

The All Blacks won the supreme award at the Halberg awards last week. Graham Henry won coach of the year, and Richie McCaw won Sportsman of the year as well.

My Questions to you are: 


Who are the Halberg awards named after? Who was this person? 


Choose one Halberg winner (except the 2011 winners) and tell Room 13 why they won their particular award. Clicking on this link will take you to a website that has all the starting information you need. 


Remember your research is due on Friday. You can either post it to the blog, or email it to Mr. Caradus. If you don't have internet at home or can't use internet at home, ask Mr. Caradus in the morning if you can use the class computers.

Research for wk 2

We have all enjoyed another long weekend because of Waitangi Day. However, do you know what Waitangi Day is about?


For this week's research I want you to answer two questions: 


What is Waitangi Day?
Why is Waitangi Day important to all New Zealanders? 


Mr. Caradus wants your answer in a written paragraph. Remember to put your answer in your own words. Do not copy and paste your your answer from another website. 


Check out these websites for your answers:  http://www.nzhistory.net.nz/  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waitangi_Day


Remember, this research is due by Friday morning on 10th of February. It must be either posted to this blog thread or emailed to Mr. Caradus.
