Thrillville Theme Park Game Review and Design

We read a game review about a game called Thrillville.
It is a game for xbox or playstation and you get to make your own theme park.
We wish we had a game like that!

After we read the game review, Mrs Kelly gave us 30 minutes to design and draw a new ride for a theme park. We had to think about the fun factor and also some safety features so no one would get hurt.

Here are some of our creations. Remember we only had 30 minutes so some of them aren't finished yet. Ask us questions in the comments if you want to know more about a design...

Riley and Yash designed Night of Doom.

Taraipine and Fiona re-designed the Fear Fall.

Avantika and Harmony designed Watercoaster.

Sharece and Ezekiel designed The Rainbowcoaster.

Meadow and Tyler designed the Death Ride.

Richie and Keanu designed the Good Coaster.

Rianna and Adiva designed the The Trace.

Kaia and Elizabeth designed the Monster of Doom.

Puna and Manaia designed the Soap Coaster.

Nita and Kashvi designed the Coloured Pool.

Iona and Aliya designed the Crystal Tunnel.

Gymnastics try outs

Today Mrs Kelly, Mrs Kilford and Mrs Taylor held try outs for the year 3 and 4 competition gymnastics team. 


There were about 150 kids that tried out and we can only take about 20!

Watch this space to see if you made it into the school gym team!


Don't be upset if you didn't make it - you can keep on practising during your class gymnastics sessions every Tuesday in Term 3 - you might get picked next year!

Keep practising!!
