TRIP TO THE QUEEN'S GARDENS

THE TRIP TO THE QUEEN’S GARDENS:

On Friday 21st of August room 14 walked to the Queen’s Gardens. We walked there for a reward because we filled up the Kotahitanga jar. I walked there with Oscar, Arjuna and Desiah. When we got to the Queen’s Gardens we unpacked and we had our lunch. After lunch we played finding bugs. Oscar found a centipede and Jay found a snail. Oscar called his Centy and Jay called his Trailly. I wanted to find one but I couldn’t.

After that we packed up and went to the Japanese garden. At the garden Oscar lost Centy. I also tried to find a worm but I couldn’t.

On the way back to school we went a different way. When we got back we watched Prehistoric Park. I had an awesome day!

LUNCH AT THE QUEEN’S GARDENS:

On Friday room 14 walked to the Queen’s Gardens because it was Kiri’s last day at school. Our class got together and started walking. I walked with Toby, Arjuna and Arjuna’s mum. When we got there we all had lunch I sat on a big tree with Toby and Jay.

After lunch we had a play. I played tag, climbed trees and found a centipede. I called the centipede Centey. Jay found a snail and called it Trailly. Then we packed up and walked to the Japanese garden. When we were there I dropped my Centey. After that we walked back to room 14 and watched some of Prehistoric Park. It was a great day. I can’t wait to do it again.

LUNCH AT THE QUEEN’S GARDENS:

On Friday 21st of August room 14 walked to the Queen’s Gardens because it was Kiri’s last day. Some parents came too but only two. When we got to the Queen’s Gardens we got set up and had lunch. I sat next to Eva and Ana, they’re my two best friends. After lunch we played lots of games like tag, bubbles and climbing trees.

After we had played some games and did all the stuff we needed to do we packed up and walked to the Japanese garden. It was amazing, there were lots of things made of concrete. Then it was time to go so we lined up and walked back to school. We saw shags nests and water wheels. It was so much fun. I can’t wait until next time.

DEAD PRECIOUS

On Thursday room 14 went to Dead Precious at the Museum. We saw lots of fossils and we also saw a pretend triceratops head! When we saw the Plesiosaurus my group draw a picture of the Plesiosaurus. After that my group went to make clay fossils! After that another group went to that part of the exhibition. There were lots of things to look at which included making fossils and the plesiosaurus. We looked at the crab shell with the crab inside and it was fossilised to. Nearly everything was fossilised! But some things weren’t. After that we read a story about ‘Dig a Dig a Dinosaur’ .
We saw a VERY VERY BIG ammonite. Mosasaurs ate them, they were much bigger than the ammonites.
We saw a video of the mosasaurs attacking an ammonite.
