• The opening statement is followed by sentences that describe the event; what you saw, what you did, how you felt, what you learnt.

A Trip To Spencer Park

On Friday Ako Ngatahi, Room 3 and Wahi Ako went on a school trip to Spencer park. We took a bus to Spencer park. On the bus I was bored and quiet and just wanted to get there because kids were being loud.

When we got there we were put into groups. I was put into group number three with Mrs Mclachlan. After that the teachers said we could go onto the playground. The first thing I went on was the flying fox. I only had one go because there was a huge line. Then I went on the big rope pyramid. I climbed all the way to the top I could see all the way to the wetlands.

Then it was time to go for the wetlands walk. On the wetlands walk I saw lots of birds. Some were hawkes, pukeko and white hearon.

After this, we went to the beach and saw lots of shells that came in all shapes and sizes and big bits and small bits of drift wood. Some of us saw a little centipede and a dead bird. I also saw a shell with flesh in it and a big bubble came out then it moved and liquid came out. Then we went back to the playground and got the bus and went back to school. On this trip I learnt that some things from the sea look weird and might hurt you.
