Auckland Live Field Trip -Aotea Centre
Cool! My school went to Aotea Centre before the school holiday.
First, I brought muesli bars to eat inside Aotea Centre then we got on a bus so it would drive us there. It was an old building named
Auckland Town Hall. There was a small amount of security guards.
We put our bags in a room then went to a bigger room.
There were 4 creative dancers. They made lots of Maori patterns and shapes when they dance. They performed a haka and showed us some of the actions.

Next, we walked to Aotea Centre. On the top floor I used the ipad to see the Digital Art birds in the birdhouse. Some were flying, on the ground and outside the birdhouse.
After that in the bottom floor there was a big screen with people's faces in it.
Above them was a note saying how to contact them on a phone. When that was done a larger screen appeared. We had to blow in the phone. It blew strong wind to the people's face and hair in the screen.
The other one was story telling. It was very cool.
The final one was in the Herald Theatre. The actors made a story about saving electricity.
Lastly I had to go back to school in the bus.
It was very Epic...

My Trapped Dog
Someone help! My dog Wade got caught in a hidden trap made of iron!
I called some road workers and tried to open the trap but it was made out of reinforced iron. It was really heavy because it was glued to some heavy weights. My dog whined a lot because the trap was locked shut.
The road workers and I needed help so we rang some fire fighters to wash away the glue so we can lift up the trap and try to open the trap. The fire fighters washed away the glue and the road workers now lifted the trap and now we opened the trap to let my dog out.
Lastly, we ran back to the street where my house was, to rest. I was very exhausted from calling the road workers and the fire fighters to help my stuck dog.
L.I. to write a imaginary recount.
