Blogging Challenge #10



This week the blogging challenge is all about your participation in the blogging challenge.


Week 10 Tasks STUBC


Here are some prompts to help with your reflection...
Option One: Write a post on your blog reflecting on your participation in the challenge.
These are the sorts of prompts you could answer in your post:
  • How many weeks of the challenge did you participate in?
  • How many posts did you write in the ten week period?
  • How many comments did you receive from classmates, teachers, or other visitors?
  • Which post did you enjoy writing the most and why?
  • Which web tools did you use to show creativity on your blog?
  • What are your plans for your blog now? Will you keep posting?
Option Two: Ask a student/teacher/family member who might not have read your blog to do an audit.
Sit beside them while they navigate around your blog, record what you observe as they interact with your blog. When finished, ask them the following questions:
  1. What were your first impressions of this blog?
  2. What captured your attention?
  3. What distracted you on the blog?
  4. What suggestions can you give me to improve my blog?

Sad day



To all the bloggers

No doubt you will have heard of the terrible shootings in our city of Christchurch.

I just want to say – this is NOT New Zealand, it is NOT who we are, and to quote our Prime Minister, the shooters are NOT us and have NO place in this country.

To all the families of New Zealanders, new and old – our hearts go out to you.

Kia Kaha (stay strong) Christchurch – Kia Kaha (stay strong) New Zealand. Aroha nui.

Sending our love,
Room 14 OIS







This morning, Oamaru Intermediate School held a special assembly to knowledge and show our support towards the victims and Christchurch community.

To acknowledge that OIS is ONE, we released 24 balloons, symbolising the 24 cultures that make up OUR school.  



Today and everyday we will be good, we will be great and we will be KIND.
