The BFG is a friendly giant. He has short grey hair, gigantic ears, and has a very pointy nose. He is very old and wears a white T-shirt, including a brown leather vest. He lives alone in a cave. He has a very pale and wrinkly face. Even though he's alone, he taught himself to do life's basic things such as Reading, writing and speaking.

Maths

Captain Blackheart buries his treasure but loses his treasure map! But all
is not lost. His trusty crew remember different bits of the map.

"I remember drawing it with 5 squares each way,'' says the Captain. 

"There was a row of three trees running due East from the square (1,1)",
Peg Leg Pete says. "You put each one of them on a different square."

"Weren’t there four granite boulders going due South from (5,5)?" John
asks. "I think you put one of them each in a square too."

"Ah!. Now I remember!" yells the Captain. "I buried the treasure halfway
between the first rock and the most western tree!"

Where is the treasure?

Geonomics at Point England

On the 30th of October, 2019, Our Class went to Point England school to share our learning about genomics. Our day started with a long walk to Point england school. Once we arriaved, Dr Jannie and Thierry welcomed us and expained what we were going to be doing. We got put into groups with the other schools. We introduced ourselves and showed them how we've been doing in genomics. Next, Dr Jannie set up a quiz for everyone. The quiz was quite easy for our school because we've been learning heaps about genomics. Straight after, we had a quiz battle with the other groups. Even though the questions were a bit hard, we still managed to work as a team and complete the quiz. Fortunanty, our group came out third!. It was a amazing experience and I really enjoyed learning more about genomics and making new friends
