Tamaki Technology

On Monday the 14 of February at 8:30 am the year 7’s and year 8’s went to Tamaki college for technology. There were Wood work, Food tech, Electronics,Science and Graphics. Wood work - Wood Work is when you make something out of wood like a truck or a car. Food Tech -Food Tech is when you make different kinds of dishes like chocolate brownies, at the end when you’ve finished making the dish you have to start cleaning your area that you worked in and then you have to write the recipe such as what ingredients and equipment you need to make the dish. Graphics - Graphics is when you create different kinds of objects like a spinning wheel, it is when you turn the wheel and then you will see some interesting facts.

The group that i was in was electronics. we didn’t actually do anything we just talked about safety rules and solved problems just so we know what electronics was all about. Our teacher’s name was Mr Malhortra he was a funny teacher he always made us laugh. After a while we got into groups and sat at our tables and then we discussed about what we want to make next week.

What I was thinking of making was a hat with a fan on top of it or a light on top of a hat so when it’s dark and I can’t see i can use the light from my hat to show where I am going. The fan on the hat was so when I am playing and I am to hot and I still want to keep playing and I don’t want to sit in the shade I can just turn the little switch on and then the motor will make the fan turn on.
