On Tuesday, Rooms 8,11 and half
of Room 9 travelled by bus to the Air Force Museum. When we got there we met
Chris the Education Manager also known as “A Teacher”.
We then had morning tea. We had a
scavenger hunt to look for Fighter Jets from the R.A.F. in 1940 to 1948.
We then had a tour after lunch.
We jumped out of a R.A.F. Jumbo Jet. We saw a big cargo R.A.F. plane and I saw
the cockpit.
We also made paper planes. The
trip was so we could learn how Orville and Wilbur Wright invented the plane in
1903.

Wigram Air Force Museum Trip
Yesterday Room 11 went to the wonderful Air Force Museum.
We
traveled by a big blue bus.
When we got to the very big Air Force Museum we were amazed.
When we got to the museum Chris introduced himself. Then we
had our crunchy morning tea. I really liked it. It was delicious.
Then we went to see some planes. Some of the planes you could
hop into them.
Then we went on the hunt but my team didn’t so we just had fun
and enjoyed ourselves.
We went to the class and built a cardboard plane then we went
downstairs for lunch.
Then we went back to school.
