Term 4 - Week 6 - Yea 5 EOTC WEEK ACTIVITIES

This week our Year 5 students did not attend camp 
however they had their own planned 
Education Outside the Classroom activities they participated in. 

DAY 1

Monday was our trip to the
Auckland STARDOME observatory planetarium
Here we learned all about planets, stars and the amazing features of our galaxy. We also got to have our photo taken in a space suit.



 



There was an awesome playground next to the STARDOME. 
What do you reckon we did?



 


 


DAY 2 - ROCK CLIMBING WALL
The second day we learned to conquer our fear of heights by climbing a very tall mobile climbing wall.
It was so much fun, some of us were really good and some of us found it very challenging but we all gave it a try.
We learned how to strap on our harnesses properly and also how to climb properly. The instructor showed us how to do this before we were allowed on the wall.
The wall had different levels, from beginner to advance.
Here are some of our efforts







  

 

ON THE SECOND DAY WE ALSO ENJOYED SPORTING ACTIVITIES AND A MOVIE WITH POPCORN AND A FEW OTHER SNACKS.
 

 



DAY 3

WEDNESDAY - A DAY AT THE MANUREWA POOLS
AT THE POOLS WE GOT TO SHOW OFF OUR SWIMMING SKILLS THAT WE HAD BEEN TAUGHT AT SCHOOL.
