Waikowhai's fun day - wheels day

Hey there everyone. Two days ago fun times were rolling by. That time it was wheels day. In wheels day we can have mufti clothes that is wearing other t-shirts, singlets and shorts or pants rather than school uniform. However, you have to donate a gold coin for that. The activities were of course riding on your wheels, people who don't have wheels or want to try something else, there's yellow trolleys. The yellow trolleys have their own space which down the slope that leads to the back of Te Waka Ako. The other activities require water, the so called Slip'n'slide and swimming in the pool. We also had relax time and playing board games. I liked this day because we get to have a chance to take a break. Here's a picture to show what it looked like.

So happened after for us was a slideshow to complete and add photos in. To complete you have to reflect on each De Bono thinking hat.
