Excellence Care Values 8

At student council we took our next steps to making our ice cream day happen. We learnt that the PTA (Parent Teacher Association) had planned a massive sausage sizzle on the exact same day so we had to decide whether or not we were gonna cancel, in the end we ended up postponing the ice cream day and moving it to a later date which has not been decided yet. We decided on buying the small individual tubs and we had to figure out if they included spoons, and after some emails, we figured out that there was indeed spoons included with the tub. We then looked at the prices and did calculations to find out how much money we would pay and how much we would gain from an estimate, these were our calculations and they are probably not correct: Prices

If we bought 9 cartons of 125ml 24 pottles:
For each flavor
$1.14 per pottle excluding GST
$1.31 per pottle including GST

If we bought 648 pottles:
For all flavors
$849.56 including GST
$738.72 excluding GST

Profit
$771.12 for $2.50
$1095.12 for $3.00
 
The leadership quality and Care Value I showed was Active Thinking because we did many calculations with the maths and figured out how much profit we would get.

Merit Care Values 5

Technology This week on Thursday we had technology and on the penultimate session of science, we had some fun with lego mindstorms, which are robots that you program and do fun things with. We initially started building the lego mindstorms, some people tried to go off by their imagination but Melahkye and I decided to go with an instruction booklet that taught us how to build a basic robot. The building process was pretty easy so we got to programming fairly quickly. We taught our robot how to move in a square so the next challenge would be so it won't go out of the square when moving around. It didn't work that well as there was something wrong with our motor but Natasha and Savannah's worked. I think the care value I showed was Active Thinking as the programming stage was fairly challenging and confusing.

In writing I have been learning to use a wide range of punctuation appropriately and with increasing accuracy like . , ! ? “” - colon : - semi-colon ; - hyphen - - parentheses ( ) - brackets [ ] - ellipses ... I have been especially focussing on using parentheses and semi-colon. I have highlighted these in green where I have used them as well as other punctuation that I changed because it was used incorrectly. Here is a piece of my writing that shows this. 28/02/17 Key things about being an effective Deputy Head Boy What is leadership?
