Excellence 2017 Can Do #10

Year 8 trip to Wellington 

Final Day

On Thursday, we had a bit longer in the morning, to pack our stuff, and tidy our rooms. We put all our bags in storage, as we had to be out by 10:00. After leaving the YHA, we went to the national library, where we found out about, and looked at, the treaty of Waitangi, the women's  suffragettes pension, and the declaration of independence. We saw the actual things, in darkened rooms, although they turned a special type of light on so we could see it. It was cool to be able to see them. After that we had lunch, then we had the choice to go back to Te Papa, or relax in a park. I took the Te Papa option. We could do a scavenger hunt, or just look around. Tracy, Jacinta and I did the scavenger hunt for a bit, then just looked around. Then we met back up with the rest of the group. We then took a bus back to the Airport, and flew back to Christchurch.

The care value I showed was Respect, by being respectful to the person who was showing us round, and on the plane by being quiet. I showed Trustworthy, a leadership value, at Te Papa, by returning at the right time to check in, and by following the rules there.
