Poutama Class Trip

On Thursday 1st December, our class went on a trip to Palmerston North.

We went to the lido, the esplanade and cloud 9.

At the lido, we were able to go on the hydroslides. Everyone really liked the superbowl. In the superbowl, you have to be in a floatie and you spin around and around until you come out the other end! There was also a speed slide, which was super fast! Less than half the class gave this one a go, because it was so scary! Lots of people did the inside slides.

We also were able to use the diving boards and lots of people built their confidence up by jumping off the highest board!

At the lido, we also had the aquarun, the outside play area – aquafun as well as the inside and outside pools!
We had so much fun!

After the lido, we walked to the esplanade and had some lunch and a play in the park. People were on the seesaw, the slides, the hamster wheels, the flying fox and talking to each other with the special science things!

Once we had played for a little bit, we got back on the bus and went to cloud 9!

Cloud 9 is a trampoline park, we had to watch the safety video and then once we had special grip socks we were able to go and jump! Cloud 9 has foam pits, spinning things, dodgeball, basketball, zorbs and so many trampolines!

We were especially lucky because Miss Salton also bought us slushies!

After an hour of jumping, it was time to come back to school!

  1. Hello my name is Nika and I’m from Paihia School. It must be so fun to go to the lido! Where there are lots of water sides! I wish that I could go there one day. I loved the fact that you guys have build your confidence to jump off the highest diving board, you guys are so brave because that reminded me of when I have swimming lessons and every time we have to jump off the diving boards I always start in the water or just dive beside the pool, like sitting down beside the pool. It must be an amazing day! You must be lucky to have Miss Salton.

    Keep up the lovely blog post!
