WAIHEKE!

It is always a highlight getting to see Uncle Bruce and his family. The middle school are so lucky that we get to spend a whole day at Uncle Bruce's farm and house. Here is a little about what we did!

The middle school got ready to depart at the beginning of the day. We traveled by bus to the ferry terminal and got on a HUGE red ferry. It was so much fun feeling the wind in our hair and the smelling the salty sea. We got to explore the humongous boat and we saw heaps of islands pass by us.
When we got to the dock, a bus took us to Uncle Bruce's farm. We saw cows and sheep in their pens. It smelt so bad, like rotten poos! A man named Shane shaved a sheep in front of us and we got to feel the soft wool.
We kept going and started our nature walk. It was beautiful inside the bush. There were heaps of trees and plants and we saw lots of birds and skeleton leaves. It was so hot and it felt like our legs were going to fall off. Suddenly we could see the beach.
We ate yummy hot dogs and hamburgers. Uncle Bruce is so nice to get us this yummy lunch. We got ready and went for a refreshing swim. The waves were gentle and the sea was really salty. This was the best part for us because it was so hot.
On the way home we talked all about our adventure and some of us fell asleep on the bus.
THANK YOU UNCLE BRUCE FOR THE BEST DAY EVER!
