ACCORD.
Hey there!! It is still the 21st of October :) Today we had a talk about Relationships from ACCORD. A woman called Margaret gave us the talk. It was really good! INFACT it was much better than I thought. I learned about the different relationships in the home and within our community. We learned about how to deal with our emotions calmly and smoothly. Today we have a Spanish test on everything we have done since we started TY. Its going to be hard, but were just going to have to deal with it ! Tomorrow we have Halloween dress up day! Our theme is Scary Movies!!! Should be good ! Talk to you soon.
Our TY week !!!!
Hey! It is the 21st of October and 1 week to Halloween! haha :) Cant wait. Friday last we had a brilliant talk from Colour Me Beautiful. It was really good! I was a deep. Which means dark deep colours suit my skin tone, eye colour and hair colour. It was really good as we learned a lot about ourselves and what our style personality is!!! Yesterday we had our second mini-company in Naas. There we discussed our Green Hero Magazine. We discussed our market research and how we collected it, suc as issuing surveys to teachers within our school community and to local primary schools. After we got to go to Mac Donalds!!!

Water!!!!!!
Hey, our given topic today is Water!!!!Water covers 70% of the Earth's surface it is vital for all forms of life. That is an interesting fact:)
On Earth, water is found mostly in oceans and other places such as ponds and lakes. Oceans hold 97% of surface water, glaciers and polar ice caps 2.4%, and other land surface water such as rivers, lakes and ponds 0.6%.
Water on Earth travels continuously through the cycle of evaporation or transpiration, precipitation, and surface runoff.

Drama Competition During English Class!!!!!
Heya! We are in IT class now and blogging as usual :). We are entering a drama competition in our english class in the New Year and we are performing a role play from the novel "Noughts and Crosses". How exciting! But this novel has a twist. Instead of the white people dominating the blacks, the black dominate the whites. This is an excellent story with a gripping plot. Today during our english claas we went down to the PE hall to begin acting out our play. There we were given our scripts and we mde excellent progress. Bring on the New Year! :p
