 * Challenge or Task || Reciprient || Details of Award ||
 * Private Page || Paula || She immediately approached the set tasks with enthusiasm. It was also good to see the amount of thought and effort put into her page . She also reviewed her work, corrected errors and made changes to improve the content and presentation. ||
 * Class Challenge
 * Map of Europe Challenge || Paula
 * Citizenship Projects || Christine || She attempted both Citizenship/Government tasks promptly, asked for assistance, and submitted them early and fully completed. ||
 * Who Killed King Tut Newspaper Expose || An || Well written and took into consideration the evidence she had found ,which clearly argued her point of view and supported her conclusion. ||
 * Egyptian Photostory Research Project || William || First to finish and upload his project on Cleopatra showing an ability for follow instructions. ||
 * Unscambling the 60 Animals || Christopher || Several members of the class achieved this result which was incredible as no other students have every completed the task. Congratulations to all who achieved this outcome (even if you used word unjumbler software). Christopher however was first finished and first to let me know! A brilliant effort which many members of staff would not achieve! ||
 * Class Challenge
 * Job Well Done || Tiffany || Although she has missed a number of classes, she has eventually made an effort to catch-up on her outstanding wiki tasks. It is better late than never! But more importantly, she took responsibility herself to complete this work without me having to keep on reminding her. Well done. ||
 * Wiki Homework Award || Nina || She has an outstanding record of completing set wiki work immediately and remaining up to date. She has made more wiki updates than any other member of the class (at this stage!) ||
 * Zoo Quest Competition || Simon, James and JJ || Highest point scorers and therefore most successful team. (Forty points clear of the second team!) ||
 * Outstanding Work || Rebecca || Her narrated Photostory presentation on Unsolved Mysteries of Ancient Egypt shows extensive research and a well organised, interesting and informative script. It is well worth going to the History Page and having a look! Each member of the class should aspire to "doing their best" and I am sure that other students can also do well. ||

 * Voki Goals for Semester 2 || Christine, Maddy, Rebecca and William || Although the majority of the class made an effort to complete this task, only these four students, attempted ALL THREE parts of the task. It is important to follow instructions, and to ensure that all parts of the task are understood and completed. It is also pleasing to see the amount of effort put into their work! ||
 * Wishing Well Task || William, Christopher and Kelly (first three) || It was good to see so many students attempt this task which tested how well you could follow instructions. It was a very hard task and William was the first who managed to follow all the steps and find the solution. A number of other students also succeeded and must be commended for completing such a tough problem. ||
 * Uploading of Zoo Project Presentation File || An, Tiffany, Faiza || Only one group completed this task without having to be reminded. I had asked for each group to upload their presentation file (Powerpoints) onto the wiki for everyone to have another look at. I still expect all groups to do this! ||
 * Class Challenge
 * Up-to-date for

I am sad to see so many omissions (EVERYONE!!). Let's see who are the first 10 students to catch-up with absolutely nothing overdue. || William, An, Paula, Jessy, Rebecca, Christine, Faiza, Sampada, || Sadly, all other students still owe work and have not responded to the above challenge!!!!! At last, a postive response, but there is still a long way to go and 6 more names can be added!!! || (Only a few of you keenly attempt these problems) || However, I must commend the group for "getting their act together" and putting in time outside of class to meet the timeline and produce an impressive project. || Rebecca & Hung || These students in particular made an effort to complete the virutual team group tasks over the weekend so that their groups would gain extra marks on Monday. I appreciate EFFORT more than the final results. Congratulations and well done!!! || Congratulations to the other three member of the class who also achieved the objectives but did not accumulate as much wealth. However, a fantastic effort by all four students. In fact the whole class did very well with the only casualty being poor Hung who did not survive during the game: RIP Hung. ||
 * Up-to-date for Semester 2 || Maddy!
 * Extinction Essay || Kelly, Sampada, Simon, Christopher, Rebecca and Nina || In my opinion these six students wrote the best essays on the topic "Extinction is Emotive but Inevitable." I have asked each of these students to upload their essays to the Endangered Species page. Look for the link on this page and you will then be able to read these essays. ||
 * **Brain Buster Problems** || Brain Buster Hall of Fame || **I have created a separate page to recognise the students who are keen participants in these activities. This page recognises tasks in which the whole class is actively engaged!**
 * Bruce Kingsbury Project || Kelly, Lisa, JJ and Rebecca || More than any other group, this was a team effort with everyone putting-in and fulfilling their roles. Kelly was instrumental in leading the group and Rebecca excelled at creativity. Lisa and JJ filled in the blanks and assisted in preparing a colourful, creative and informative mural eulogising the life and death of a galant war hero with close connections to our school and local community. Anyone can see that a lot of time and effort went into this presentation. ||
 * Bruce Kingsbury Project || Jessy, An and Pamela || **I did not think you were going to make it!** (It took you too long to get organised and do anything.)
 * Wiki Master || William || He has shown initiative to electronic monitor key pages on our class wiki so that he keeps up to date with any changes or ammendment. This is one of the reasons why he features so prominently on this Hall of Fame and the Brainbuster Hall of Fame. I must also commend him for his enthusiasm and involvement in this wiki. Congratulations and keep up the good work! ||
 * Most organised and best presented workbook || Kelly || A recent check showed that a number of students had put effort into completing all tasks and organising their workbooks so that all work was kept in sequence. However, I found Kelly's to be the best example. Take a look to see why she has been acknowledged for her efforts. ||
 * Genuine Effort and Teamwork || Christine & Pamela
 * Barter Game Champions || "King" Simon, James, Jessy & Christopher || Simon has earned a position of power and prestige by his superior negotiating and bargaining skills which saw him a clear winner and a future entrepreneur!
 * Lemmings Class Challenge || Ken || This game requires a lot of thought and planning. It is an excellent problem-solving game requiring considerable skill to "save the Lemmings". If you haven't given it a go, try it yourself!! Ken is clearly the most skilled member of the class (at this stage) and I am impressed at how well he can play some very complicated mazes. ||
