Mathematics problem solving excercise
All around were excited people exercising brains and bodies
The principal calling out the time that was left
Hard and challenging Mathematical problems
Exhilarated people running around and thinking at the same time
X-treme mental and physical races to the finish line.
The winners at Mathex were: Isaiah, Longoa'a, Daniel and Lorraine - 1st with 100% marks
Synergy, Jorjah, Elaine and Rose - 1st with 100% marks
Zeenat, Mele V, Taverio, and Tipiloma - 3rd with 80% marks

Wearing a helmet while riding a bike
A helmet is a strong covering worn to protect the head.
Helmets come in all shapes, colours and sizes. They are made of strong fibre-glass on the outside. The inside is lined with foam.
While riding a bike, if you don’t wear a helmet you may suffer from serious concussions and may even come close to dying from massive injuries caused by falling and hurting the head.
If you don’t have a helmet, but you get tempted to ride your bike you have three choices: walk, run or don’t go anywhere at all so you don’t get hurt riding your bike without a helmet.
Wear a helmet and you will be safe riding your bike on busy roads.

Writing an explanation
Why must we have breakfast everyday?
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day that anyone can have.
The best breakfast we could have is cereal, milk and fruits because they have goodness in them. They provide us with carbohydrates and vitamins not forgetting the fibre they have which is good for us.
Breakfast can help us get energized and gives us enough strength to sustain us through the day.
So, eat breakfast everyday if you want to be fighting fit, think clearly, be more creative and learn better.

Why we must have breakfast
Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day. Breakfast can be anything like Ceral, milk, Milo and even a piece of toast. Breakfast helps us do well in school and in tests. We must have breakfast because it gives us energy for the day. Everyday we must have a healthy breakfast to start the day off with.

Mathex Fun Challenge!
Today, after interval Room16 and 15 went to the hall to do a mathematics challenge called Mathex.
We had to do a lot of running during the challenge so no one was disadvantaged while getting our questions and submitting our answers. The challenge was fun yet we had to exercise our brains and our bodies at the same time. As we were running to collect our questions and taking our answers to the markers sitting at the front of the hall, there was excitement in the air.
Not only was the problem solving challenge hard, it was also fun. People were shouting and running, hearts were pumping fast, faces turned red with excitement and brains kept turning like the wind during thunder storms. Our hands were aching trying to solve the problems fast.
Our principal was timing us and when he called “3, 2, 1 Stop!” Our hearts slowed down. The buzz in the hall calmed down too.
Even though my team didn’t win, we still tried our best and learned a lot.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day because it provides the energy needed to start the day off right.
A healthy breakfast consists of milk, fruit, and cereals.
Children who eat a good breakfast perform better in school, pay more attention, are more creative, think better and score higher on tests. They are also less likely to be overweight.
Eating a healthy breakfast does not need to take a lot of time.
We must all eat breakfast everyday because it offers more benefits.

Explanation
A helmet is a strong covering worn to protect your head when you ride a bike. Helmets come in many shapes, sizes and colours to choose from.
We wear a helmet while riding a bike so that we don’t hurt ourselves seriously. Wearing a helmet is just like wearing a seatbelt in a car.
Wearing a helmet saves our head and can even save our lives. The helmet takes the critical damage for you.
If you don’t wear a helmet you can get real serious injuries. You might die if you ride fast and crash into an object and hit your head on the object or on concrete roads.
So remember, always wear a helmet when you ride your bike.
