Police visit

On the 16 of November we had two police officers come in and talk to all of TK house. They talked about what there jobs are in the police force and the jobs of others. The main four jobs they talked about were. 

- Criminal Investigation Branch ( CIB )

                                               - Scene of Crime Officer ( SOCO )

                                               - Environmental Science & Research ( ESR )

                                               - Electronic Crime Lab ( ECL )

They talked a lot about ESR and how there job is to help understand things like :

• DNA - Where they are finding samples of the root of hair, blood, clothes, saliva- sneezing, drink food, bite, even cigarette butts.
• FIREARM- They work out the trajectory, work out the direction of the bullet where is came from and finding out where the gun came from - which Country or  store.
• PHYSICAL IMPRESSIONS - Foot wear impressions, tool marks, fibers / paint, glass a and tire tracks.
• BLOOD PATTERNS- Where the offender attacked, the distance between them and the victim, what weapon was used.
• LUMINOL - Helps to see where the blood is even if the criminal tries to clean it up.
• DRUGS / ALCOHOL- Blood alcohol levels, determining it is a drug, toxicology - victims or offenders.

After that we went through a Police Crime Scenario where there was a mystery. Up on the projector it would show pictures and videos, we would then have to write down things that we thought could be clues. At the end we had to figure out who it was and if we could arrest them or not.

Here are some photos:

Scary movie - haunted drama room

,

For drama tech we had two lessons a week one doing drama and one in our class 

making a movie. My group did a scary movie about a haunted drama room. In my group 

there was Sahmara, Rebecca and Eva. 

Sadly our movie got deleted (the I-pad self-destructed) so here is our trailer. 

Enjoy 😄

School athletics

Last week HNI had their school athletics where each House is to wear their colours-  Blue, yellow, red, or white/black.  We all competed in Nerf throwing, 100m sprints, discus, long jump, shot put and some people did high jump.  For each thing you did you could earn a point for your house depending what you placing was, and the house with the most points wins athletics.

After we had the individual sports we had the top runners run 100m, 200m and 400m. Once we found out who won we went into relays where everyone ran 100m.  Four people ran then there was a big relay with 32 people running, 16 boys and 16 girls. Like the first relay they ran 100m. Not sure who won yet but it will be close
