Room 4 and the rest of Panmure Bridge School walked to Point England Reserve today to learn about the local history of the area and the Tamaki River.
We enjoyed walking from Panmure Bridge School to Point England Reserve. We used what we learned from Constable Richard to “stop, look and listen” to keep ourselves safe on the walk. It was amazing seeing the Tamaki River up close and we looked to see if there were any Taniwha’s around. On the way we saw boats, bushes, trees, birds and someone fishing in the river.
Halfway to the reserve, Room 4 students got very tired and asked their teacher “Are we there yet?”. It was a longer walk, just about 2.6 kms. Although it felt far, we enjoyed doing it together as a class.
When we got there, we sat next to the river and had our morning tea. We were so hungry from all the walking. We had conversations about the walk with our friends and with some of our parents that joined us.
After that we played in the park on the playground. We especially enjoyed going on the Flying Fox and the swings. We also enjoyed the slides and we had to go one at a time. We were very happy to see that the playground also had a rock climbing wall. It was so much fun!
Finally we got onto the bus that took us back to school.
We had so much fun walking to Point England Reserve and we loved the park the most!
