Our Disco.
Almost everyone from Waimata was here and many of our friends and family as well. The hall was all decorated with streamers and balloons and Tina brought amazing stamp on lights which were laid out on the floor.
The dancing started at 6pm and went on until almost eight. There were prizes for the best costumes, best dancers and last in, for games like spin the bottle. We did the limbo and the Mexican hop. When we got hot or short on energy there were cool drinks and snacks to revitalise us.
What fun!
Our latest inquiry was around how climate and physical location affect what food countries produce and what the people eat for breakfast.
We divided into groups, Spanish, Mexican, German, Filipino, French and Japanese. We located our country on a map of the world and researched what we would eat for breakfast. The teachers helped us prepare the breakfast and we helped them to eat it!
Then a week later we all met for breakfast at school. But this one was a real kiwi breakfast; boiled eggs, toast, weetbix, stewed fruit and, of course, Fonterra milk! It was kind of fun sitting down to eat breakfast together in Room 5.
