Bay of Islands college orientation day!

On Thursday,

The year 8’s went to the Bay of Islands college for our orientation day. We had to sit in the gym and listen to some students introduce themselves. After the students finish their talk we stood up and sang a song. There were alot of year 8’s there, most of the year 8’s came from Kawakawa. The schools that were there were Oromahoe, Karetu, Kawakawa and Paihia. After the students talked we walked to the library and listened to the year 9’s dean talk about what we were doing. We were given little papers with our timetable on it. One of the subjects I liked was science. The teacher showed us little metal cubes called sodilised metal. We walked outside and there was two plastic containers filled with a liquid I didn’t know. Our teacher threw one little cube in, it started fizzing and catching on fire. Then it started fizzing and jumped out of the container and it looked like the water  fountain fireworks. Then our teacher put another metal cube in and it started fizzing straight away. My Aunty tried to walk towards it and then it popped and it gave my aunty a big fright. Then we went to other subjects. Then we went back to school and went home.
