Wesley Intermediate School Trip.

 On Tuesday, All the year 6´s from the Kea team walked to Wesley Intermediate. It wasn't that long of a walk to get to the Intermediate. We entered the gate of Wesley Intermediate and met the vice-principal, Mr Taufia ( sorry for wrong spelling ). He introduced himself and asked us some questions before we went inside. 

Once we went inside we were all amazed at how different and unique the intermediate was. We walked passed some hallways and into the Gym/Hall. Then we went outside and Mr. Taufia gave us a tour. He first showed us where the Woodwork class was. We all went inside and observed all the different tools. 

Then we went into the little hallways and entered the next room; the music room. In that room was a bunch of musical Instruments some even used in orchestras! There were ukuleles, Guitars, Keyboards, and Drums. Then Mr. Taufia said that they were the only school in New Zealand that had a Caribbean Drum group. 

Then we went outside and saw where we could spend our Morning tea and Lunch playtime. We were not allowed to go where the Wesley intermediate students were. Soon, we went into the Hall and saw May Road Primary. We sat down in our colour groups - Red, Pink, Green, Black, Blue. I was in the Black group with Ashley, Mele, Doris, Haydara, Joseph, and Rakaii. 

Then we saw some Wesley Intermediate students sitting on benches near May Road. Then we met the Principal and our leaders. Our leaders were the ones who would take us to our assigned classes. Our leader was Bella and Gammado. Our first-class was robotics. We met Mrs. Mundy and some more helpers. We used Scratch to code our spheros.  Spheros are some sort of round ball controlled by a coding app. After we finished we went back to the hall to have morning tea. Then we went outside to play. After we went back to go to our next class - cooking. 

We went to cooking and got the instructions. Our teacher said we were going to make brownies. Then she took us through of all the different recipes and pastries we could make when we went here next year. We went to a station with a helper from the intermediate. We started following the instructions while our helpers heated the baking trays. We ended up pouring the batter into the tray and put it in the oven for 20-25 minutes. 

Then for lunch, we went to the hall and ate our brownies and lunch from school. And again we went outside to spend playtime. Then Bella and Gammado took us to our final class- art. We met Mrs. Sialoa. She taught us how to use oil pastels and blend in colours. We had to try and blend different colours and make shades. After we each got a piece of black paper and drew lines and colored it in with our oil pastels. We blended in it from darkest to lightest. 

Then we all went back to the hall to receive our certificates. Then we all said goodbye to May Road and left. So to end, this was Kea´s Wesley intermediate experience.
