Term 3 Immersion Assembly

Wow is that Valerie Adams,Oh no its just Mrs.Tele'a dressed up in clothes like Valeries. Oh and is that Michal Jordan the legendary basketball player oh no its just Ms.Squires dressed up aswell.
Teacher after teacher all dressed up in wacky "champions" clothes.
Our topic for this term is "We Are The Champions".I think that we are learning this topic because the Beijing olympics are coming up and so since the olympics are coming up Beatrice,Valerie,Georgina and Caroline better get training,But if you don't know who they are then here you go:Beatrice is a discus thrower,Valerie is a shot put thrower,Georgina and Caroline who are both twin sisters they do rowing together.
The immersion assembly for the topic was really entertaining,funny and entertaining.There were skits showing off and somemore skits.The topic for this term is really tempting for some people to learn and master sports.I really should try hard to learn and master sport.

MOTAT



We walked through the door and saw Jean Batten and Richard Pearse displays. We saw Jean Batten's medals, pictures and articles about her. But what astonished me the most about Richard Pearse was his plane. At first I thought it was piece of junk but soon I found out that it was an aircraft, "WOW" I said. I mean it looked all rusty and looked like the oldest bicycle alive. It had wings made out of out of wood and metal. It almost looked like a slide with a ladder at the back and the wings also looked like a playground with stick people on it.

The senior school was at MOTAT because our topic was "UP UP AND AWAY".

My favourite place at MOTAT was the Hands On Area. It was like a playground heaven for little kids. There were heaps of amazing things that I liked at the Hands On Area like the earthquake cafe, spinner and the big kalidescope.

Another thing that we did was the tram ride. The tram ride was like an olden day train. It went slow but had a few stops in the middle which was quite annoying. The tram ride led us to MOTAT 2.

MOTAT 2 was filled with heaps and heaps of planes from bomber war planes to luxury transport planes .We had an instructor called Frazer who showed us around and told us the names of the planes.

It was a really fun day and after that I was exhausted.
