Accenture Hour of Code 2018.

Accenture DigiTech IT Trip










Today a group of year 10's from Tamaki College 2018 were selected to go on a amazing trip to the Accenture Hour of Code, for our ICT trip. When we arrived in town - Queen St.  We had a little bit of feed and the Accenture Team introduced themselves to us. There names were: Karl - (MAIN PRESENTER.) , Dan , Dimple , Sid -(TECH PRO), Blea , Mark - (VIRTUAL REALITY.), Emma , Timoti. We sat in a room called (Atutahi)

Unfortunately Timoti could not be there as he had other plans in Sydney, I think he was there for a conference or a meeting. But we called him on Skype. Even though Timoti was not their it still felt like he was. When I saw him on the call I thought he would be a really shy person, but it turned out he was not a shy person. He talked really proud and also gave us good tips.

Later on after all that introduction, while some people were coding other people went into a room called Mclaren Room.(R-Room). To play some games. One of them was this Batman came and like you would put this headest thing on and like also would have a controller and like it was call beacause it was Virtual Reality. The other game was killing these things coming out of the wall that was really cool as well.

I had a really awesome day, learning more about coding. I hope one day I can go back to this trip. With the same group of students. Thanks for Everything Accenture Team, I did not want to come back because the view was nice and like I was enjoying it there.

Year 9 Social Studies - sum-up

Kia ora, My name is April and I am telling you how I felt Year 9 social studies. Some of my favourite things that I learnt was learning about sustainability and also how we went on a trip called Te Taiao O Tamaki. I think I could do better at opening more and also be more confident. Something that helped me in social studies was learning about life lessons but also how we had the most amazing teacher to teach us  because without Ms Apelu we would not be where we are as a class and we would not be that strong. and now it has came to the end of the year we have all became closer as a class.  But I am gonna miss 9RMz heaps and I am upset we are moving away because I actually have known all of the students real good and and also I am gonna miss being around all the kids apart of 9RMz of 2017. I wish we never had to move because I am √ loving them now.

Click on this LINK to go to the Live hangouts
Click on the LINK to go to the Live performances.

The theme for this Projects was Called Sustainability.
Some of the projects were.

  • Our Houses & Home
  • Our Waterways
  • Healthy Eating
  • Identity & Culture
  • Parks & Public Spaces
  • Rubbish & Recycling
My Group done the healthy eating it was gathering up to Sustainability and how that came together is because healthy eating is all about eating healthy and my group focus was to tell people that they HAVE to stop eating junk food because adults & kids are spending most of there lives on JUNK FOOD. I have a deal for you Start eating healthy food more often and you can probably eat Junk food once a month. You don't have to listen but yeah. Start eating healthy food to get a healthy & active body.

My favourite part of this unit was everything because we had the best teacher to teach us Ms Apelu she is the head of Social Studies also why everything was the favourite part was we had the Te Taio Tamaki @ Te Oro then 6pm - 9.30pm we had a Junior social and I learnt heaps about all the projects like for one the Waterways everyone just dumped rubbish in the Greek.

Something that stood out for me @ Te Oro was all of the photos I took & also the Tamaki College Samon group and why that was because they were the best Performance.

Here are some of the photos we took.
