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
