Yesterday, room 10 and 12 walked down to Point England Reserve. There took place an event which was river talks. We first had to have our lunch next to the library. The only thing is that room 10 and I had our lunch in class but we weren't supposed to. We came into the library and room 12 was eating their lunch. We were supposed to, but like I said we didn't.
Right after that we had to line up, into two even lines. Then the adventure began, besides the students and prefects we also walked with the teachers as well. The way that we went was a shortcut to get there faster. Mrs. Golder, said to stay of the grass so we did.
We finally arrived and it started with a man, he was chanting in Maori and also talking about his life back in the day. He was in the river, our purpose was to clean the river so the marine animals would live. Also so we could swim and fish. There were stations and we would move on one by one. There was dancing, singing, drumming and more. It last ended with the two schools singing a song. Our song that we sang was Ehara.
