This is the second activity for the second day. The activity write on if it was fair for the black ferns to get less money than the All Blacks.

Presenting leadership speech


Today the year 7's presented their leadership scripts to the Principal Mr Johnston, the other year 7's and Miss Kirkpatrick. Our scripts were about the leadership roles for 2020 we could choose to write about if we wanted to be sports leader, head boy/girl or manaiakalani leader. I choose to write about sports leader for my script. Once we got into the office I was nervous but when I went up to go speak I wasn't nervous but I was confused around the end of my speech.

Market Day Evaluation

Last week on friday PBS had a Market Day to help us on our inquiry topic enterprise and economics. Our product was the Rainbow Crayons. Were Rainbow Crayons a good choice? They were good because we had a variety of different colours and shapes. They were cheap to make and looked really good in the end. Our gross profit was $96.00, our costs were $8.00 which made our net profit $88.00. We made our product with broken and used crayons and moulds that were gifted to us. So they were cheap to make and on the market day we sold our Rainbow Crayons for only one dollar. While we were doing our market day we could buy an ice block for one token because we used tokens to buy products from other classes not money.
