Omg tech trip

A Trip to OMG Tech
On a Saturday, a fine day, some of the glenbrae students got chosen to go to OMG Tech. It is where we build robots. We are going to do 3D printing, coding, and fixing stuff. Only 20 people got to go. We went by bus. The bus was called riche.
In the bus there were only nineteen people because one person was away. We drove from lebron circle to the
city. It was a long drive. By the time we got there, there was a lady called Michelle Dickinson that showed us glenbrae students, around OMG Tech.
There were activities for us to go to, and also there were other schools there too. The first activity I did was the 3D printing. Its when you go in the computer and build your robot. When you are finished print it. It takes long to print out what you have created.

Hope you enjoy

My slide show about the solar system.

Our information about Saturn




  • The size of Saturn is 10 time larger than Earth in diameter.
  • The surface of Saturn is liquid and gas because if you are on a spacecraft and you land on Saturn you can feel the ground solid and also it does not have much metallic hydrogen as the largest planet, Jupiter.
  • If you weigh 100 pounds on Earth you would weigh 107 pounds on Saturn.
  • Saturn is larger than the Moon when it is in the sky with the Moon.
  • Saturn has other chemicals on Saturn and it also has water`

  • Saturn is the sixth planet in the Solar system and, when seen through a telescope, by far the most beautiful.
  • The planets goes in order like this Mercury, Venus, Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
  • Saturn is the last planet that can be seen without using a telescope or binoculars and the planet was known in the ancient world before telescopes were invented.  The rings, however, can only be seen using a telescope.
  • The rings were first seen by Galileo in 1610 through a telescope.
  • Saturn has at least 18 moons, satellites which orbit round the planet attracted to it by the planet’s gravity.
  • Saturn is the second largest planet in our solar system.
  • Saturn is named after the Roman God of agriculture
  • Saturn has the lowest density of all the Planets in the solar system. Saturn is 6 planets away from the Sun and it was the Roman name for Cronus.
  • Saturn has seasons because it is tilt on a 27 degrees angles and it is compared with Earth's one it is 23 degrees an angle.

Our google expedition

On Tuesday we went down to Room 3 down in the juniors to do some google expedition. When we  inside Room 7 saw these goggles with some phones inside the slip. Once when Mrs Parker told us the rules we went up and got the view mask, but once when the teacher put on the picture you can look around but you can not see anyone beside you.

Once when the teacher went on the tablet she put the picture of the  volcano. We were looking at the volcano. I looked below myself and it looked like I was going to fall down, but I wasn't falling down for real. Mrs Parker told us everything about the volcano. Mrs Parker said to us that some volcano are active and dormant. So when the volcano erupts the ashes can spread out in the sky. If this happens you can’t go on a plane, because the pilot can’t see where they're going in the sky because of the ashes.

Once when we were finished the world trip Mrs Parker told us that we were coming back to the world trip in the afternoon. So a couple hours later we went to room 2 because another class was using room 3 for the google expedition. Mrs Parker was sorting out the table. We were just looking through the goggles to see if there was anything popping up but we were still “waiting for the teacher”.

Once when the teacher finished sorting out the tablet we saw the Hiroshima memorial where the bomb happened about 70 years ago back in 1945. Hiroshima is in Japan.  Mrs Parker told us that the building in Hiroshima was collapsed by the bomb. We were almost finished but 6 people, including me, went to the Principal's office to get a notice for Saturday’s trip and that was all for today.

I liked the google because there was a phone in the slip, which became the screen. I really enjoyed myself, seeing all the sights around the world and it was cool doing it with my friends.

Season are cause

[Title/ question] What causes the season?

[Define] Seasons happen throughout the year and include Autumn, Winter, Spring & Summer.

[Describe:
  • In Autumn: It sometime cold in Venus, Earth and Uranus because they all have seasons and it is also tilted.
  • In Winter it is really cold if Saturn was tilted all the way down to 30 degrees angles it would make Saturn really cold.
  • In Spring if Earth get tilted it be really hot because it is changing the temperature and it will change the angle or tilt of Earth.

[Explain] We have these seasons because you won’t know what would the planets looks. Would it look like it is so pale and it won’t looks the same now.

Our Stardome trip.

Last week Thursday our senior School was so lucky because we get to go on a trip to Stardome. Firstly in the morning we went down to the hall because we just had a little assembly for the senior School before we go for our trip on 10:00 o'clock. So once when we're talking about the things we have to do in Stardome. Miss Elia our Principal called a class one at a time so we can hop on the bus.

Once we got there we had a little morning tea. Once we finish having morning tea we went inside Stardome and putted our bags inside the cage. We were with Room 8 when we went inside the (Space Room). Once we had a seat there was a lady in the space room and she said that she is going to be our educator. We watched and listen to her what was happening and she said that we are going to learn about the sun and why does Earth travels around the Sun and even more.

So the educator told us that the Sun travels around the Sun because there will not be any day light for Earth. Every morning and night the Sun rise and the Sun sets every time because half of the Earth is night and the other half of Earth is day light. Did you know that a lighting bolt is five time hotter than the Sun because when it thundery the lighting strikes fast and inside the lighting bolt is some flames and it is like the electric wire when it connect together there you go is is electric and you can not see the flame inside the lighting bolt.

After the space room we went to the movie room. Once when the movie started there were two kids there name was Mike and Anna. They wanted to discover but once they think they shrink and they get to fit inside Mike is little toy space ship. They travel to Fiji and they sawed the sun that was going to set. So they finish their vacation and once when that was finish we left the room and we went and had lunch where we can eat and play. Once we ate and play we went in the bus and went back to School and that was the coolest trip ever.

Swamps under the clouds of Venus.

  1. Venus is beneath the clouds where the endless ocean is. There is a floating islands. On the island there is oceans and wave as high as mountains.
  2. Venus has no clouds or anything because it is so blank that mean it has no life and that is true.

Imagine you are a science fiction writer and have gone forward 30 years into the future. Tell us what the world is like. What can your phone do and what is the transport like? [Write 1 paragraph]

In 30 years our phone will be funky it will has human beans eyes in the screen. The transports will be floating in the sky and the tire will change into a windmill so it can be going down to the ocean like a submarine. There car will look like a human bean but it just have a hood with some lights on top and a chair too. And 45 people fit inside the car because there are 50 seats in the car.

Helmets put on secure

Helmet save lives

Wearing a helmet while cycling is important because if you are going out for a bike ride with your mum or dad you should know to wear a helmet because if you have a crash you might damage your head on the road it can go through your skull and down to your brain so you need to wear a helmet.

Some special details
  • While wearing a helmet you should put your helmet on correctly not backwards because it won’t make your head comfortable. So you always wear your helmet correctly because if you have a bike crash you will damage your and that why we always need to wear our helmet when we go on our bikes, scooters and skateboard.

  • Another thing about is when you are wearing your helmet just remember to buckle in the straps so your helmet can be secure on your head and it won’t go forwards and backwards because your helmet might fall off your head and you might injure yourself without any helmet.

Tally chart

Today we have done our tally chart. Which is better out of Nike Adidas, Puma, Fila or All stars comment below and enjoy.

My question for our presentation.

My question:
  • Why do some of our planets have rocks on them? The rocks come from the asteroids.

  • How come there are no clouds on Venus? The clouds a whisper and it the colour blue.

  • How come there are holes on the Moon? Once the Moon had a volcanic flows it makes a hole and there are so many craters too on the moon

Spending time with my Aunty on her Birthday.

Today in the afternoon I was just watching Television and my Aunty showed up at the door. I heard in the room saying to my brother that they were going to McDonald, So I went inside my Mum room because my Aunty was in there and I said if I can go to and they all said "Yes,". I said Happy Birthday to my Aunty and she said thanks Danny because I her Birthday today. I went and hop in the car and I sawed my Cousin Amira and my Uncle Johnboy. 

We drove by car to McDonald. At McDonald my Aunty said what do wants and I said I would like a Big Mac burger. My cousin was playing with Marcus at the play-ground. We ate our food but my Aunty and Uncle did not eat because they went out for lunch. We were playing and playing until we went back home.

Conclusion: I felt so happy that I went out with my Aunty to the McDonald so I can spend time with my Aunty on her Birthday and that when I spend time with my Aunty.
