Tamaki Tech

To experience Technology, we stroll down to Tamaki College for Tech. This happens every Monday’s, we meet up in the street before 8:30 and then we leave altogether. We’ve got 5 groups including the year 7’s that go to Tech, there’s various different types technology we do. We have Cooking, graphics, wood works,science and Electronics. I’m currently in electronics.

In the weeks we’ve been there we created a circuit. This simple circuit is a alarm sensor. We had a cardboard which when you stepped on it, it would trigger the alarm and make a beep sound. When we tried this experiment there were heaps of alarms going on at the same time and the piercing sound of the circuit.

In our group today we created a poster to show the danger’s of electricity. For example like electric fences, oh I remember never touch a soldering iron when it’s heating up, I can tell you it’s really painful. I used really colourful colours and didn’t finish on time. I really enjoyed electronics and learned heaps about technology.

Can’t wait for Science.
