Cybersmart With Mark Maddren | Interactive Pick A Path Story!



The last 2 weeks that we had cybersmart with Mark Maddren, he taught us how to make pick a path stories using google forms. (Thanks Mr Maddren!) I was amazed that we could do this, and never knew that google forms could be used like this.

Above is a story I made, hope you enjoy it!

Cybersmart with Mark Maddren | Pixel Art

Cybersmart with Mark Maddren | Pixel Art



Today, Mark Maddren came into our classroom to teach us tips and tricks on using Google Sheets. We learnt that you could actually use them in creative ways, rather than just typing down data on it.

One of the things Mr Maddren taught us was to use Google Sheets as a pixel art tool. We learnt how to change the size of the columns to make it into even squares.

It's really cool being able to do incredible things like this with technology today.

Uru Manuka Logo Design Entry!



Uru Mānuka is a cluster in Hornby. It is made up of schools around Hornby, including Hornby High School. The Uru Mānuka Cluster is looking for a new logo, and has held a logo competition. The picture above is my entry for the competition. I created it using sketch.io.


I kept it simple, and drew a manuka flower. I added some colour and detail to spice things up a little bit. I then added the name of the organisation, and the slogan, 'Inspiring Futures'. I tried to make it simple, easy to read, and attractive. 


To me, the logo represents growth. The Mānuka flower here is growing into a beautiful flower.  Growth is a big part of what Uru Mānuka focuses on. Uru Mānuka helps learners in the cluster, such as my school, Hornby High School,  and teach them new things that will benefit us even as we get older. Uru Mānuka helps and inspires us to grow into passionate people that we will become in the future, as the slogan suggests. In my view, I think that the Uru Mānuka cluster is the Manuka Tree, and that the beautiful manuka flowers growing on the tree, are us.

We are the mānuka flowers that will soon grow into beautiful people in the future.
