HHS 2021

At Hornby high before the first day you have a short period of time (between 1-2 hours) where you get to meet your form/wananga teacher. "Whats a wananga teacher?" you might be asking, well, a wananga teacher is the teacher you spend 7 hours a week with doing things about wellbeing.

What about the other 5 hours of the day? We have different teachers doing either  hurumanu or other activities (P.E, Japenese, Maori, woodtech, etc).  Hurumanu classes are your normal run of the mill subjects (Literacy, maths, etc)

Hornby high can be fun with the many opportunities people get in school, things like Cantamath (A math competetion I recently participated in), Air velocity (A car race where you build the car you race in), Epro8 (A engenering competition).

 

Script detective

 Last week in Hur 2 we started a new term of drama. In this term of drama we are looking at a thing called script detective. In script detective we inspect books, scripts and other things to try and find emotions and other things that might be in the text. Last week however we did some drama exercises and we worked together and did some things like freeze fame and acting.

The Bully      16/11/2020

Today in drama we looked at a short video called the bully. The bully was made by a 12 year old girl who got bullied but helped someone and they became friends. Would describe the victim as shy person who wants to fit in.
