Celebration Time!

New Years

Thinking of my resolution

For this huge celebration

I can hear my whole town

Yelling out the countdown!

Guy Fawkes

Driving around in the night

Looking around at the lights

Everything is so active and bright

It's such an amazing sight!

Christmas

Hanging decorations on the tree

Spending alot of money

Going on a shopping spree

Receiving lots of gifts for me!

Vacation

It's that time of the year, vacation

It's all about relaxation

The hot summer's sun on my face

It's a sensation!

Kids4Kids E-learning Evaluation Movie

Paparoa house Year seven's and eight's held an e-learning conference called Kids4Kids on Thursday 28th of October this year to teach the year sixe's from Somerville's contributing schools such as Point View, Willowbank, Shelly Park and Cockle Bay how to use computer and internet applications so they are prepared when they come next year. Kyle, Crystal, Krishna and I held a workshop on Google Docs teaching the Shelly Park and Cockle Bay students. Here is an animation created on xtranormal about the Kids4Kids e-learning conference evaluation. We will talk about the highlights and the lowlights of the conference. So sit back, relax and enjoy the movie Crystal and I made! "Lights, camera, ACTION!"
