Margaret Mahy Trip

On Thursday my hub and I went to visit Margaret Mahy playground. At 9:30am we got there. We were all so excited for all the rotations. The first rotation I went to was Margaret Mahy Playground. We looked at all these cool designs that I had never seen before. Then Mrs Carney, my teacher, gave us a piece of paper and a crayon. Then we went to our favourite design. I put my piece of paper on the tile and I rubbed the crayon on my piece of paper and made a cool piece of art. Then we got to have a yummy nibble to eat. I ate a piece of chocolate and crackers. 


While I was waiting to feed the tuna I got to play on the playground. We all went down the big slide together and it was so fun. All the mats were different and there were 13 of them. 


Then it was the fun part, we got to go on the waka. It was fun to paddle. I was sitting in the front of the waka.


Afterwards we walked over to Victoria Square with Mrs Brown. Then we had a look around at all the statues and the big water fountain. Me and Patrick, my friend, looked for some coins in the water but we couldn't find any. We had to copy the pou and make it ourselves. Mrs Brown asked some questions and then we walked back then we got on the bus and went back to school. 


My favourite part of the trip was the waka because it is fun to paddle through the water. Also  seeing all the tuna swimming.


Something I learnt was that female tuna is bigger than male tuna. There were thirteen mats and they were all different designs.


The thing I found the most interesting was the mats because they all told a story.


This trip has helped me with my PBL because it gave me ideas for what my group would design for the school.

  1. Hello Caleb, your blog post is amazing. This made me think about when I went to Margaret Mahy. My favorite part was the Waka as well. Maybe next time could you add some more describing words to make the story more interesting. Awesome work Caleb!
