Thinking Hats Reflection on Netbook

At Pt England school everyone from year 5 to 8 know about netbooks.

Having a netbook makes everyone's learning a lot faster. We don’t just work at school, we can also continue on our work at home and on the weekends too.

Sharing our work is now alot easier with our blogs and netbook. We can share our anything with the world. Sometimes they even give us ideas of how we can improve our work.

Something not so good about the netbooks is that it is quite hard to draw. Also many people think that the screens are too small and I agree.

One thing that the netbook should have is a movie editor. It would be good to have one so that we could make movies at home and at school without going on the Imacs. It should also have a mouse so that we can draw things quicker and easier.

THANK YOU TELECOM!!

Have you ever been to the Telecom Christmas Tree event? If you haven't, you should go! It is held in Victoria Park at night time and it is also free.

Thanks to Telecom, this year some people from our school got the chance to attend this very exciting event. First we took a bus to Telecom and then we walked down to Victoria Park. Once we got there we set up and had something to eat.

There were quite alot of activities to do there. First my friend and I went to the Santa Line to tell Santa what we wanted for Christmas. Next a man gave us a decoration we could design. I chose a tree. On the back I drew MERRY CHRISTMAS and HO, HO, HO!!! 

After a while I saw my brother coming back with a box that had a light in it. I decided I wanted one, so I went in the tent and created one too! It had a brown kiwi, a sparkly Christmas tree, a Telecom sign and a laser light in the middle to light it.

Everything was so much fun, but I couldn't wait to see Titanium! They sang their hit song Come on home and more! Unfortunately I didn't get a picture with them! But besides from that I had a great night!!!

It was very entertaining and the tree looked amazing!!! It was so bright. I wish we could've stayed longer!
