Everything seems so cute!!

Had a good day?  I did.  Today well...  I under-glazed!!!  It was so exciting!  I had already drew pencil on my plates so I was ahead.  I had drew a duck and a pig and they look so cute!  I love the thick black outline makes it stand out.  I also have a replica of a smiley face orange that is also adorable!  I also have a gift for someone (I'll tell you next week).  I love everything about what I painted (or under-glazed your choice)!

Also I have to sort out a time-table for the pottery.  I'm going to sort it out in whatever order I like.  So see me next week (also about the present) and you will know the order.

Speaking of the time-table, I have to do it!  And know is the best time!

See 'ya 'lats (for see you later)!!!

Hello Again!

Hello.  Oh I'm so sorry, I'm in the middle of roll call.  Oooo...  My name is coming up soon...

"Grace!"
"Sorry, here!"
"What's your favourite 'must see' place?"
"Greece!"

Yes, that was the beginning of my day.

Before I say anything else, this is the first blog of Term 3.  Big achievement, getting this far?  I think so.

So anyway, Katie was saying about how we need to say:

"Here!  My must see place is _______________."


So that's what we did.  Moving on...

Picadilly Circus was quite fun actually.  So many people failed to win the game for us.  Now I'm sorry, but I can't tell you the rules because Katie said so.  But I can tell you we made a pretty good score (except for the times where we got disqualified).


Passion Project Update!
So it's almost time to go do my ancestry but I need to give you an update.  We... We...  Didn't do basically anything.  But at least we got to fill in a time table.  Well sometimes you've got to look on the bright side, don't you?  Next week, we're continuing with it!  And Marie popped in to say that we will under-glaze next week.  I can't wait for next week now!


Goodbye (But Welcome Back To The Blogs)!

Guten Tag, I like farm animals!

Guten Tag.  That's German for hello.  I've been studying Germany today.  You know discovering your past, right?  Well I come from Germany and I have a last name to prove it.  Mine means 'Weaver'.  Anyway I know the ideal decoration for my passion project, which, by the way is clay.  It's...  It's....

Farm Animals!

Yep, that's correct.  Animals on a farm.  I've already started planning.  A different animal for each product.  I've already done a pig and a duck.  It will be the cutest thing ever!

Also it's the end of Term 2 and we've have got homework to do over that time for our Discovering our Past project.

Guess what?  I'm basically the expert with clay without our clay tutor.  She wasn't here today so I had to teach some girls the basics of clay.

Oh, well that's the end of the Term.  I guess, well, bye!

My goal is...

Aloha...  And greetings to all.  Aloha is the hawaiian word for ' hello'.  I'm talking to you about...  Um... Oh yeah!  Goal setting.

  I did 'goal setting' with Nicola. We set goals for the second half of the year.  

Here are my goals that I set for my mid year report :

• I need to focus on my time management for passion projects (I’m doing clay), reflection (reflection of my time doing pottery) and blogging.  I can hardly manage my time in this area of work.  I could potentially be slowed down with Marie as she has a number of people to work with. However, I could fill in my reflection sheet at home.

Then I changed it into a smaller goal for our goal tree and this is my varied and smaller version of my goal:

• For my goal I need to focus on my time management in the area of pottery.  I will need to be more independent.  Grace W.

  Now it is sadly time to go.  I will say a hui (goodbye) as I share the exciting news!  Marie has just arrived and it's 11:00 and I'm so excited!!!  So a hui again.
And also mahalo (thank you).

A cow.

Today I got so excited that Marie was coming around and.....  Oh...  Hi!  I was just thinking about what to do for my blog.  And Marie came in this morning and told us to plan what we were doing and can you guess what I'm planning???  A  tea set!!!

Can you guess the other thing I'm doing.  It's amazing!!!!  A......

Cow.  I said A Cow!!!!  It's so awesome and amazing.

Also today I've got a few answers to some of my Q's (remember last week?)  Can you think of 5 Qs to ask?  Think quite deeply.  I hope you come up with something interesting!  After lunch I gonna plan my awesome teapot!!!


Catch ya lats!

Discovering your past!!

Why didn’t my Great Grandad go to the Mount Casino battle like his twin brother?  

That is just one of my 'Discovering Your Past' questions.  We had to do 15 open ended questions!!!  I have  just finished mine!  Here are some other Q's to ask!!!

What side came to New Zealand first?

When did we lose our ancestors traditions?

How did we lose our traditions?

Which side of the family got into the most trouble of all time?

Which countries followed on from Dutch, British, Scottish and German???

What is one of the most important family members in our ancestry?

Are there any hidden family members that I do not know of?

What are other countries connected to me starting from the third generation and back?

How long back does our family go (as you remember)?

What are some of our traditions that we have carried on?

Got to go so, well, bye!  Passion projects!!!

Passion Projects are up and running!

Good morning or if your reading this past 12 good afternoon.

  It's quarter past 11 as I'm writing this to you!  Anyway, today we've already done some great things.  We've had a refresh from last weeks big announcement; do you know this term we are doing discovering our past!  We had to name 1 thing we have learnt about our family and from the timeframe so many people couldn't answer the question!!  And then we had to do a personal development session and I was with Katie following on from 'The Pit'. We also have some delightful people in at the moment from up North.  Did you know they are looking to have their own Enrich?  That's pretty cool.  You know whats even cooler?  Passion Projects are here again!  And that means that now I need to do mine and get it up and running again!

  Catch you later!
