Whitu Wiki Swimming
This wiki in Ruma Rima we had our School swimming sports. The weather sure played the game. It was like a bath! Fantastic to see students challenging themselves and giving it their all.

Using the numbers 1 – 9 put a different number in each circle. Arrange the numbers so that the sums of the three numbers on each side are
- all different sums

Ono Wiki
Yet another busy yet successful week in Ruma Rima. We have been focusing on our next steps to progress our swimming ability at Blackball. Students have been identifying what they want to focus on and are breaking each aspect into achievable chunks.
This week we have also been learning about using watercolours in Visual Art. We have learnt that you need both paint and water on your brush but not too much water on your page as it makes puddles on our page. WE have learnt that to make a lighter colour we just add water to the paint on the page. Check out our tonal value lines below. Would love to hear your feedback on our progress so far.
Next week is School swimming sports looking forward to seeing you all there!

2017 Here we are
We have blast off! Welcome to 2017. In Ruma Rima we have been so busy we haven't had a chance to get blogging and sharing what we have been up to. Firstly, this year our Ruma has changed as we have welcomed in our Yr 5 learners. Now we are a mighty Ruma or Yr 5 - 8. We have amazing Tuakana (leaders) who have taken our Teina (learners) under their wings and are showing them all the tips and tricks to help them to be successful in Ruma Rima.
Last wiki two of our Tuakana Sophie and Crystal organised and ran a very successful Welcome back school picnic at Nelson Creek, which included, bush walking, swimming and crazy challenges for each year level. Well done ladies the day was wonderful, all of the effort you put into planning paid off. Check out some of our photos.
