Bees Wax Wraps

Hello everyone! This week in Te Ngahere we have been making beeswax wraps.

We had been given a piece of fabric to draw on.

We were drawing on them because they were a bit plain so we wanted to spice it up a bit,
and make it seem more like our beeswax wraps.

We made the beeswax wraps because normally we would have plastic or glad wrap as a
cover for our food in our lunch, but now we can cover our food with our beeswax wrap.

I think I did well at drawing the patterns that wanted them to be, mostly because I know
I am not the best at drawing.

I think I could have done better at holding the wrap still when we were drying it.

Here are some photos of my beeswax wrap:

Technology

Kia ora everyone. In Te Ngahere we have been doing technology.

We take pallets, then turn them into random things we could possibly attempt to sell,

to make a little bit of cash.

I was in a group with Mihi and Anyah.

We were hoping to make a shelf. Obviously we had to make a plan,
so we made a google drawing to explain what we are doing, and all the steps we need to
take to complete our shelf.

I think I did well at explaining what we needed to do.

I think I could have done better at measuring the wood in half faster!

Here is a picture of our plan:

Dress Up Day

This week in Te Ngahere the whole school has been dressing up as whatever we wanted to fund raise for
Kids Can.
We would also donate gold coins because we want to give money back to Kids Can.
If you didn’t already know what Kids Can is,
it is a super helpful group of people that give schools food, clothes and much more.
I dressed up as a demon with my friend Tayla. Today was so much fun!
A big thank you to Kids Can for donating so much stuff to us, it means so much!
