CANTEEN

Today, Friday the 14th of March Room 15 opened the canteen.
First of all we went over to the canteen and started making milkshakes, garlic rolls, chicken baps and noodles. Next some of us went to watch the swimming. The ones that stayed behind opened up the doors, turned the tills on and started making the orders.
After that we started delivering the orders.
When the second bell rang we had a massive line of people waiting to buy things! Ten minutes before the bell was about to ring we shut the canteen doors and started to clean up.
Room 15 did a good job and everyone helped, which made today a success in the canteen!

Swimming Survival Skills

On Thursday 13 of March we had our last day of swimming.
For fun we had to wear our Pj's in the lane pool.  We had a floating competition with our heads under on your stomachs, a handstand competition and we tried to get out of our PJ's in the water it was very difficult!   For others it was easy!
Then we went into the diving pool and tied the legs up on our pjs to make a floating device.  It was very cool!

After that we went into the diving boards and had a lot of fun jumping off the diving boards and doing amazing tricks and flips.

Bridge valley

On Monday 14th of February Room 15 went to Bridge Valley.  When we got there we started with orienteering.  Our mission was to find out what the code was to get into the safe.   Inside the safe was lollies!
One of the activities that we did at Bridge Valley was high ropes.  The ropes were not very stable but you wouldn't fall as we were held up by harnesses. It really tested our confidence!
The second activity was rafting.   We had to get our team from one side of the lake to the other without touching the water in 45 minutes.  They gave us some tyre tubes, wood and rope. 
The third activity we completed was rescuing 'Billy'(a dummy on a stretcher).  We had to carry him over a lot of obstacles, working as a team so we didn't drop him or step into the poisonous land!
This whole experience was all about us getting to know everyone in our class, working as a team and having fun.!

Thanks Parents for coming and helping out on the trip.
