When Centennial School went to Tekapo for Ice Skating and for the Hot Pools.

It was the 26th of August 2009 when Waimate Centennial School went to Tekapo. The school paid some money and we paid the rest.
All of the Centennial children gave the bus drivers their bags which went in the luggage areas down the side. When the buses drove off some of the Centennial kids had a long piece of string for string games in case they got bored.
When the buses reached Tekapo we hopped off and we walked up the steps and up the path to the front doors. After we waited in line a person gave us an orange bracelet each to wear in the hot pools. The seniors walked to the changing rooms and got changed into their togs. The juniors walked to the ice skating rink to skate. Now back to the seniors.
The seniors walked to the hot pools and swam for one hour. Then we had lunch. After we got ice skates we walked to the ice and skated. Then we ran to the buses and headed home. We couldn’t wait to tell our parents!
