At the end of this Term we took part in a Year 6 Team building challenge in the Auditorium. We had to work together to build a bridge that was wide enough for a ball to pass through and strong enough to hold a dictionary.

Email To Kings
Dear Oscar,
Our names are Caleb, Earl, Oliver and Khristian. We live in Auckland and are in Room 21 at Elm Park School.
Thank you Oscar for taking the time to send the letter to us. It was very interesting to read. We learnt a lot about recycling and pollution. We never knew that there were huge holes in Ozone Layer and that we could get sunburnt in just 5 minutes.
In our class we have been learning about soil and how important it is to the Environment. We have learned that soil is used in many different ways. Some of the uses for soils are that is soaks up water which helps regulate floods. It is alsu used for storing carbon which helps to modify what is in the atmosphere. Also incredibly the bacteria in it is used in over 60% of cancer drugs! Did you know that there is more bacteria in a teaspoon of soil than there are people on Earth. Scientists have only figured out 1% of those bacteria. The other 99% bacteria could be the cure for all the world’s diseases.
Thank you for reading our letter.
Yours Sincerely
Oliver, Khristian, Earl and Caleb B.

About the Artist
About the Artist
Earl Padaen is 10 years old and his favourite subjects at school are Maths, Art and PE. He lives in Pakuranga, Auckland. He was born on the 31st October 2004. He is a Year 6 student at Elm Park School. Earl has just started to attend Elm Park School for his first year. Earl’s family comes from the Philippines.
Earl’s favourite part in doing his art was painting and blending the colour wheel because he liked to make it look realistic.
The School Values that Earl has used to complete his piece of art were perseverance because he has been trying to do his best art work and to achieve his personal best and quality because he made his work to a high standard. Earl has learned how to drybrush as a new art technique.
When Earl grows up he wants to be a Youtuber.
