About Room 23

Room 23 is a Year 7/8 class at Belfast School!

We are made up of 26 AMAZING students. We all represent our school values CARE, SHARE, LEARN and GROW with pride!

Our class name is Hikutau, meaning eel pot / end. Our class is named Hikutau because  Room 23 is the furthest West of the school and we are the end of the Seniors.

We love to share our learning and look forward to reading your comments on our blogs!

Te Ahi Ora

On our first day back at school Te Ahi Ora came and took each class for a workshop

They taught us a range of tricks with the sticks which included flipping and throwing.  That night we were then able to go along for a community evening and the ends of the sticks were on FIRE!

We loved this session and some of us have already made some of our own to keep practicing! We made these with old broom handles and masking tape.

Check out their page for more information!

Introducing Bazza the Bear

Last week we had our first House Colour Afternoon for Jumping June!

There were four JUMPING rotations led by our Prefects and Physical Activity Leaders (PALs).

Every House Colour Afternoon there will be a winning house. Bazza will wear the winning House Colour top until our next event.

Green House was chosen as the winner last week by the secret skipper (Mr Barrow).  They were chosen for demonstrating all our school values to a high degree, including showing respect towards our Prefects and PALs.

Bazza will stay in Room 23 this week then will make his way around our school.

Our houses are split into our four school values: Red House (Care), Blue House (Share), Green House (Learn), Yellow House (Grow).

Pictured is Ariana (Green House Captain) holding Bazza the Bear and Bazza sitting respectfully in Room 23.
