Year 5 day!

Year 5 day!

 Hello!, On 17th may 2021 the year 6's went on a school trip to spark arena. My sisters a year 6 and she got to go, I was upset that I didn't get to go but my sister told me the year 5's were doing something fun with McGrath, Then I was not that upset. Eventually the bell rang and the teachers called the year 6's to come to Manukau ( The yellow space). Finally the year 5's were called to Hauraki( The blue space). McGrath was sitting on the short moon table right it the middle with her grey apple laptop on the moon table,She was sitting on the chair. After everyone sat down on the mat she said good morning.

 Soon she called out the roll. 70 seconds later McGrath was talking to us about the well being survey. She said something that wasn't part of the survey but us girls needed to know, After, she said something's about our hair, earrings, rings, necklace, bracelets, coffee and why us children can't drink because it had caffeine  it and yea stuff like that, So she said something about earrings first. She said that hoop earrings are a little dangerous at school because what if someone accidentally pulls it your earring can break and your bottom ear will be ripped off. Everyone was shocked and she said something about my earring, She said I was not getting told off but my gold hoop earring could get pulled off like her friend, 

Her friend was playing netball and she had a hoop earring and a finger went in the earring and it pulled her ear and her bottom ear was damaged. She also said that we should tuck our necklaces in out shirt so someone dose not pull the necklaces or else we would choke. She told us it was going to be pink shirt day soon and she asked why is pink shirt day real? After one girl put her hand up and explained what pink shirt day is for. Eventually, we were going to make fortune tellers. People handed out white thin paper cardboard. There were no  more chairs so some people got up to get a table from the other class Waitemata( Green space) Then my friend grabbed me and herself a chair and put it at the table to sit. 

Finally it was time to make the fortune tellers. First we had to fold it diagonally, Then we had to fold it diagonally again except on the other side. Then you unfold everything and fold it from the paper in half, Then you fold the paper in half again from the side, After you bring the corners to the middle and they will look like small triangles. Then you flip your paper to the back and get the flaps you folded and fold them to the back. Then fold your paper in half and put our 2 index fingers and 2 thumbs in the flaps and try to mould it into shape. We got to colour it in and play with it.

Then we were told to clean up and form a circle. McGrath was sitting on a chair and she said something nice about someone. Once you say something nice about someone you sit down and if you get a comment from someone else you have to say something nice about someone else and then sit down once you get a thank you from the person you said a nice comment to. You have to pick someone else. when I got picked I told something nice about someone and sat down. 30 minutes later we were finishing off our work. Me and my friends saw the year 6's coming back with bags. It was time to pack up for the day. WOW! what a cool day today I said walking out of the building. Here is a picture of my fortune teller I made.
