Otanewainuku Trip

On 13 of Jan. we went to Otanewainuku as a class trip. We were eight people, including 2 teachers. It took about 35 minutes from Bay Learning Academy.
We started to walk from the beginning to the top of the hill through the bush. It was new experience and physical fitness as well.
One day before one lady had described to us about Kiwi birds living in this bush. Unfortunately, I couldn't' see natural Kiwi birds. Anyway, it took about 45 Minutes to reach the peak. There was a small viewing tower. We had lunch at this place. It was good for sightseeing everywhere.  After lunch, we came down to where we started at the car park.
I think it was more easier than going up to the peak. ;It took about 40 minutes to come down to the start point. Anyway, it was a new experience through the bush.

TESOL January 2020

Our latest TESOL course was a great success. All three ladies passed with 'Strong Passes'. All three came with very different experiences and strengths. Sandra is from Catalonia, it was great to have the input from a non-native speaker. Heather is going to use her new ESOL skills in the classroom and Katie will be off travelling the world very soon.

We went to another place by train. We went to The Atomic Bomb Dome and Itukushima shrine. Other places are World Heritage. I visited another one was Hiroshima castle. The Atomic Bomb Dome is still remained as it was broken. The museum has many burned clothes, lunchboxes and many real photos.  The exhibition is serious and terrible facts.
