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.

 We had a lovely visit from Byung Sook Gong this week. She had been a student here earlier in the year. She was a dedicated student and her English improved a lot. Just shows you are never too old to learn something new.  It was lovely catching up with her and her family, we miss her. 

One student's experience at the trip to the Katikati Bird Garden

Yesterday I visited the bird Garden in Katikati with Yam,Patty and the teacher Juan. At the bird garden we're looking and feeding to the birds like chickens, ducks and pigeons. My favorite bird was a grey duck with Green beak, also we can see the peacock, parrots and a strange bird similar to a phoenix. The most funny parts in the trip was when we feed the birds because a lot of birds arrived with us. Isaias Barraza  (Chile)

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.
