North Harbour Rhythmic Gymnastics Certificate of Achievement for the best performance of routine has been awarded to Jessica Oh, R7, and her two team members. The competition was very exciting and Jessica was feeling very nervous, but at the end she left the North Shore Events Centre happily. Well done, Jessica!

MOTAT

On 11th of June all year 6 classes went to MOTAT to learn how transport has changed in the last 100 years. There were also hands on activities, some about transport in olden days, and something like a treasure hunt and my favourite activity -Voyager 1.
Everybody enjoyed going to MOTAT.

science roadshow

Last Thursday year5 and year6 students went to Westlake Boys’ High School for a ‘Science Road Show’. We saw many interesting things. It was a show about science, and we played on many funny, different machines such as a floor piano, glow stones, hot air balloon, wind cave and mystery box. That was a funny and full of surprises show. We want to go there again!! That was so great show!

Last Friday night, all Milford School students came to school disco. Music, light, dance and some souvenirs were there. Year 1-3 came to disco at 5:30-6:50 year 4-6 came to disco at 7:00- 8:30. We wore the shiny special clothes, beautiful shoes and shiny bags. At 7:00, almost all students (year4-6) came to the disco and gave the tickets to their parents, and come in to hall. I came to the disco with Chae-won, Ho-yun, Hyo-won, Ho-yun’s older sister Sae ran, Chae-won’s neighbour Yue-na, and Jessica. We danced, sang, ate and had fun. We had a dance competition and Chae Won won it so the DJ gave her a present, a cute red hat that she is wearing on the picture.
