Six By Mearns
7.28 created a restaurant called ‘Six By Mearns’. We had two groups, each with a genre of food they planned to make.
We chose South East Asian, and Mexican food.
The Mexican group prepared Quesadillas, Nachos, Quorn chicken pasta, fruit salad, churros, and fried ice cream.
The South East Asians made moon dumpling and sushi, Herb prantha, Katsu curry, prantha, Ube Halaya and Bahulu.
WW2 Models
In December, our entire class made models of things we thought were interesting in World War Two (WW2).
Some of us made tanks…
Others Made Ships…
Some made Anderson shelters………
And the rest made planes and blimps!
We then displayed them to the rest of the school along with 7.27!
Christmas!
This Christmas, 7.28 have done lots of fun activities! One of our favourite was making origami snowflakes!
Underneath the snowflakes, are some balloons with string wrapped around them, stuck on with wallpaper adhesive. It may sound strange, but once it dries, you pop the balloon, and it makes a beautiful ornament!
We also made night lights by decorating tissue paper, and wrapping it around a jar. When you put a candle or light inside, it shines through the tissue paper.
Debating
Recently, we have been focusing on the topic of debating.
We were put into six groups, and each group was given a topic to debate with another team from 7.27.
The six topics were,
Vaccinations should be mandatory – 7.28
Eating animals is immoral – 7.27
Zoos should be banned – 7.28
The death penalty should be banned – 7.27
The use of mobile phones and personal internet devices should be banned for children under the age of 18. – 7.27
Petrol and diesel cars should be banned – 7.28
It was tied between the two classes, three each.
