Our afternoon at the beach

On Friday the Junior Syndicate spent the afternoon at the playground and the beach. It was a beautiful day and we all had so much fun playing with our friends from Room 2 and the other junior classes.

Pataka Museum and Aotea Lagoon

As part of our inquiry topic 'Here's our History', we visited Pataka Museum in Porirua. At the museum we found out what life was like 100 years ago. We did lots of interesting activities: We wrote on slate boards, used ink pens, did the washing with a washboard and a mangle and played marbles. We even dressed up like children from 100 years ago, we looked fantastic!

After we visited the museum we ate our lunch at Aotea Lagoon, then had a play in the amazing adventure playground.
