Network Nine

And It’s All Over Now!

Today was my last day teaching at Hokowhitu School as I am leaving to take up a teaching position at Russell Street School in Palmerston North.

I have enjoyed my year and a half at Hokowhitu and will leave with lots of happy memories. I will always remember fondly my two classes ‘Fab4′ and ‘Network Nine’ and will cherish winning ‘The Fair Go Ad Awards’ last year.

Another happy memory was getting ‘Runner Up’ in New Zealand Blog of the Year. The Blog has been a revelation and has been a integral part of our classroom. Unfortunately this is my last ever post and the Blog will eventually be pulled down.

Anyway I thank everyone for their support over the last couple of years. It has been a fun ride and I’m excited about what lies ahead! Here is a little movie looking back over my time at Hokowhitu.

Time Capsule

This afternoon Network Nine dug up the Time Capsule that they burried in Week 1 of Term 1.

It took a little while to find it but eventually it revealed itself. In our Time Capsule were letters we wrote to ourselves about what we thought the year would be like and a few lollies.

Here is a photo, check it out!

CO2 Race Day

Mr Baker — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 00:53:36 +0000

Over the last couple of days we have been racing our CO2 cars at Hokowhitu School. It was awesome fun!!!

Who designed the fastest car? Well the overall winner went to Leanne from Room 11. Who won the teacher race?? You guessed it, Mr B’s Cobra came out on top!

It has been a great couple of days and there will be some video footage to come soon.

Presenting Assembly

Mr Baker — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 18:58:40 +0000

Yesterday Network Nine presented assembly with a Racing Car theme. The presenters sat in Go-Carts and did a great job.

Mr B made a funny little movie about the Tui Team CO2 Teacher Race today. It was hilarious and nearly brought the house down. Unfortunately he can’t put it on the Blog because of Copyright laws.

Here is a photo of the presenters.
