Aotea Lagoon
On Monday for EOTC week we walked down to Aotea Lagoon. The weather was beautiful and hot. We had to walk with a buddy and we had to stick with them the whole way down until we got to the lagoon. Once we got to the lagoon the whole syndicate sat down on the grass field and the teachers gave us instructions and told us the rules. They had finished talking and we had a choice to eat or to go play. Most of us went playing. We all played on the playground and on the field.
On the field there were events like Tager War, Rugby and Soccer. Other people were playing ball tag around the park and other people were just playing on the equipment. I was playing Tager War and my hands got so sore that they went red and got splinters. The rope was rough like a porcupine. It was boys against girls and the girls won a few times. Suddenly we all got called back to sit down on the grass for a feed and an update of what is happening. We got to go play again and Cyrus, Rita, and I went to go play soccer on the field. Play time was finished and it was time to leave. We got with our buddies again and walked up the hill by Aotea block.
It was so hot that I felt dehydrated but we made it back to school. When we got to school I went to the water fountain and then I went to class and sat at my table and relaxed. People were huffing and puffing that they ran to the water fountain. Then the bell rang for home time and our teacher let us go home. I thought it was fun and tiring because playing at the park and with my friends was fun and tiring at the same time. It was also tiring because of playing and then walking up a hill to get back to school, but I still had lots of fun.
