Awesome speech people make it to the WPS Speech Finals Tonight!

It started off as 'We have to do speeches this term kids!' Ms Clydesdale said. But instead of crummy speeches like last year, it turned out that Sharon, Jayden and Samuel bet the class, bet the syndicate and now they want to beat the school tonight!
And of course, all Room 11 knows they will win!

Success at the Syndicate Speech Competiton!

Sage said that it was nervewracking at the beginning and when she got up there, it was fun. Jayden went really well. Sage was about to cry when Sharon was saying her speech, and Samuel's spoke enthusisastically.

Sage is hoping that someone is sick or pulls out so that she can be the reserve.

Only 6 people went through to the school's speech finals and 3 of them are from Room 11!

Well done Room 11!

Successful Speech Competition!

The final session of Room 11's speech competition was held this morning after morning tea, with our special adjudicators, Rose and Arabella.

Maddy, Sage and Samuel were the top Year 5 speeches, with Ben as reserve. The Year 6 competition was very tough, with Jayden, Phoebe, Briana and Sharon being choosen, and Maygan is the reserve.

We were also lucky that three parents came and enjoyed our speeches. Hopefully, we will have more parents watching next Friday, when we compete against the other Year 5 and Year 6 students .

Room 11's Top NZ Brains!

Natasha, Finn, Nadia, Jamie, Jack, Maygan and Samuel all scored a massive NINE in the PAT tests that Room 11 has just finished, that makes them some of the cleverest brains in the country!

Natasha scored a stanine 9 for both Reading Comprehension and Reading Vocabulary.

Finn was going for a massive THREE Stanine 9's and missed out by one frustrating point, but with 2 stanine 9's under his belt and a stanine 8, we could call him 'Super Brain'! Impressive Finn!

Samuel's Stanine 9!

Samuel scored a massive Stanine 9 in the Year 5 Listening PAT test, which sees him joining Maygan and Jamie as three of the best listeners in the country.

Congratulations Samuel!
