The Big Day Out

In term one, the Middle Syndicate zoomed around Mapua Village completing all sorts of different activities for the Big Day Out.

First we we went to the Oreienteering activity. We followed the clues to get to the special surprise at the end which was an ice-cream at Hamish's.

Then we fished off the Mapua wharf but we only caught seaweed.

Next we visited the Aquarium. Some people touched the baby shark and some people touched the starfish that moved.

After that we rocketed to Survival Skills and made a hut out of a rope and a big piece of plastic. Toasting mashmallows, making people pyramids, playing in the leaves and boat building were part of the fun too.

Then we dashed to the Blind Fold Challenge.We had to work with a buddy. One was blind folded and one guided them around the playground.

I felt relieved that I had completed all the activities and looked at all the stickers on my Big Day Out Licence. I felt proud. (Georgina)

I liked the Aquarium because of all the colourful fish. (Travis)

It felt really really fun. (Bejamin)
