Our Room 7 Sgraffito!

On Friday 25th of June a couple of students made a Sgraffito. We made the Sgraffito in modules. We got an A1 piece of cardboard and ruled up the cardboard diagonally about two rulers wide. Then we coloured it in with 11 different coloured pastels. Finally after that we put a layer of black paint over the top of the pastel and waited for it to dry.

After it had dried we got a kebab stick and scratched our names into it.

We got every one in the class to sign it including our teacher Miss Rodman and the fishes;  Ginga, Mullet, Boris and Midget. We found a place on the wall for it on top of the whiteboard.

This is the final

result. Here is the Sgraffito on the wall.

Environmental Science

Sustainability is making something last longer and one way to make the world a more sustainable place is to recycle. Recycling is when you reuse something after you've already used it.If we don't use the three R's (Reduce,Re-use and Recycle) nothing will be left for people to come in the future.

In June 2010 Room 7 went for a rubbish walk around our school grounds. Room 7 were looking for rubbish for over 50 minutes. After that we had to sort out the rubbish we had picked up (wearing rubber gloves of course! :),and put it into three different categories such as reduce,re-use and recycle because 'Environmental Science' is our term goal. Some people even went in the bushes and found a lot of rubbish.
