Hi guys,


Even though I've been at Enrich for almost a year now I have never done a video post which is a bit strange so I'm going out of my comfort zone and doing one .I hope you enjoy.

My day at Enrich


This morning When I came to Enrich I did a before school pick it was all about how our body and other animals reacts to fear, it was pretty amazing  and very insightful. If you would like to visit this website here is  the link.       http://www.fearexhibit.org/    when you get there click on view exhibit.



After morning tea I did affective with Alana. Todays topic was on a 12 year old girl called Adora Svitak. She is a gifted inderviduale just like me. She gives talks about how adults should listen to children, she also said  that just because you're a kid dose not mean that you can not reach you dreams.   I have a video of Adora giving a speech to people on an a american TV show called TED .

MacGyver technology challenge

 Today at Enrich we did a  MacGyver  technology  challenge.

 MaCgyver is an 80's TV hero who would get away from the bad guys by using rubbish to make his escape tools, he was also very famous for his mullet.


We had to recreate one of the stunts that Macgyver  did.  What you had to do was you had to make a device to retrieve the hammer and chisel  to break the concrete  that surrounded your feet. You only had 15 minuets. My device sadly was an EPIC FAIL!!!!  It was a very good experience but I would hate to be MacGyver. Here is a picture of my EPIC FAIL, a picture of MacGyver and the process of making our EPIC FAIL !!



Bye see you next week, Joey (:
