Akiko wrote about a trip she took to Hiroshima last October

I stayed ANA hotel Hiroshima last October. There is in Hiroshima city. My husband and I took the tour. It was the fee including ticket and staying the hotel. It was a low price.
We enjoyed 3 days at this hotel. The hotel is near the Hiroshima station and clean and comfortable. I saw many foreign people stayed there. They came to watch the World Cup Rugby.
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. I am moved there and I agreed "No More Hiroshima".
Itukushima shrine was built near the beach in the 9th Century. When the high tide come to its foundation of 'torii' and the shrine building as flooded during the high tide . It is beautiful and fantastic scenery. We most Japanese think a heavenly scenery.
In reality, the tour was cheap but I got valuable trip.

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)

This is a writing from our lovely student Arisa before she left to go back home.

I stayed in NZ for 11 months. Basically I stayed in Nelson for 8 months, Wellington for 2 months and tauranga for 1 months. And I traveled around the North island and the South Island with my family and friends as well. I came to NZ for working holiday so most of time I'm working. i worked in the restaurants, the backpackers and the farm as well. Actually working as a waiter in foreign country was my dream and I could do it so I'm very proud of me. It was really hard because my English was not good enough, I had lots of mistakes and sometimes my boss yelled at me. So when I started to work there often I cried. But I could learnt lots of things and became so much stronger. One of the reasons why I worked hard is to earn money for going back to Bay Learning Academy. Actually I had been at this school 2 years ago. When I graduated this school I decided to come back again. And then I could come back :)! The other dream came true!! I was so happy to be a student here

A Little trip to McLaren Falls Park

by Akiko Wakamatsu We went to the McLaren Falls Park yesterday. We rode in three cars separately. I rode in Juan's car with another 3 persons. I was looking forward to going there because I went to the park before 2 years ago. the park is wonderfull. It is a large area, many plants and a beautiful lake. I saw many ducks and sheep. The park show me great scenery as 2 years ago. I am glad to visit there again. Then we played Frisbee Golf, it was the first time for me throwing the Frisbee. We went up the hill. Sometimes the Frisbee flied somewhere. But we were enjoying it. I felt younger in my mind. Thank you
