Term 2 Immersion Assembly.

WALT:Write about the Immersion assembly that we had this morning.

Today is the first day of school and we had an Immersion assembly. We went to the hall in our B,G lines, we sat down and got ready for assembly. one of the prefects said the Karakia and then another did the Mihi. Then we watched some of the Items that the teachers made. My favourite item was the team 4 item because it was funny and interesting at the same time. The teachers that were in the item were, Mrs Sio, Ms West, Ms Parrant, Ms Tuia, and Mr Goodwin, they had to use a map and a compass because Mr Goodwin said that they can't use a GPS they had to use the old way by using a compass and a map. Team 5 item was about travelling around the world and whats the longitude and latitude. So the Immersion assembly was fun because we watched every teams item, the teachers did a good job and it was a fun time watching them all.

In team 5 we are learning about Travelling and whats the longitude latitude.
