A Visit from Victor.
Victor Green came in to Room 1 to let us know a little about the kind of things he did to have fun as a school aged child when he was growing up in Whangarei. He said he felt old at 21 as there were no ipads back then.
He soon got talking about life in Auckland at Dilworth School where he was encouraged and required to take up lots of challenging and fun pastimes.
Room 1 listened so nicely to Victor when he explained what it was like to go to university after having been a teenager in Whangarei. Maybe people were thinking of the kinds of things they might like to do or study in the future.
His talk about his trip to Japan really had everyone thinking and it was great to see the places he went on our Interactive White Board.
Victor brought his saxophone to play so people could understand that by learning the recorder at primary school then other instruments could follow after.
Here are some photo's of Victor and of Room 1 and other seniors listening to his talk about Japan and saxophone playing.
P.S. Victor Green is Ms Higgins' son.
Room 1 really enjoyed Victor's talk and would like to make their own comments.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed listening to you about Japan and how they are not allowed to eat chewing gum.By Te Aroha
ReplyDeleteThanks Te Aroha. The Japanese are allowed to eat chewing gum. They are not allowed to litter with it by spitting it on the pavement.

I liked the talk about Japan and how it got bombed every one loved it. I'm shocked that Japan has not a piece of litter.
