RUTHERFORD<br />
Rutherford is an awesome opportunity for kids like me. It has extended me to my limits in heaps of<br />
different ways. Year 7 Rutherford have had heaps of awesome experiences like…<br />
Micronations - Creating your own country and creating flags, maps, national symbols etc<br />
Wonderment and awe - Finding out what wonders us and showing this in 2D or 3D art pieces and<br />
poems.<br />
Number history - Exploring in depth where numbers came from and the history.<br />
I love Rutherford because everybody is the same as me but different as well. I also have made new<br />
friends.<br />
Mrs Brooks is an awesome teacher and she stretches me a lot. It’s a great two hours of fun. It’s what I<br />
look forward to on a Friday. All the different topics have taught me a lot and I’m very grateful.<br />

Mountains<br />
When water starts to freeze<br />
and the trees lose their leaves,<br />
the mountains stand, side by side<br />
helping, trading and changing,<br />
when the colour fades,<br />
but the light stays,<br />
the mountains await snow,<br />
Preparing.<br />
In the hard winter months<br />
when everything suffers,<br />
mountains stand tall<br />
majestic and calming<br />
sheltering, but shading<br />
never moving<br />
Protecting.<br />
When the newborn stand<br />
for the first time,<br />
The mountains look on in love<br />
providing, joyful, daring, foodalicious<br />
and guarding<br />
Patiently.<br />
When the heat comes<br />
and the plants dry out<br />
many wither,<br />
but the mountains stay healthy<br />
fed by the old winter snow<br />
they tower on,<br />
green, gigantic<br />
compact and curvy<br />
Providing adventure. Emily Prout
