The theme for Kiwi Can this week was integrity and the Topic was Making good choices or bad choices.Integrity means doing the right thing when no one is looking.Today at Kiwi Can we learnt how we can make good choices in the playground and at lunch and how to resolve problems. Our energizers today were Opposites and Protect the Jedi.My favorite energizer this week was Save The Jedi.The aim of the game is to protect the person with the noodle stick (The Jedi) then he or she has to tag you with it it and without being hit with the ball,whilst the people in your team throw the ball at the other team trying to hit the Jedi.
I was a Year 8 student at Panmure Bridge School and my teachers were Ms Kirkpatrick and Mrs Anderson.

Mathematical Me
This week for math's my partner Harlem and I measured our body parts to see if they were the same size and if it was True or False. I was surprised that your arm span was the same size as your height.
At first I didn't believe it, but when we measured it, it was True.
