We looked Wacky!
After morning tea, the Westpac Air Ambulance landed on the field at school. In the chopper was Jerome Kaino! Jerome told us over 5000 people used the air ambulance service last year in New Zealand. He thinks the air ambulance is a great thing to support because it rescues us where ever we are.
The Juniors had lots of interesting questions for Jerome... Do you know Richie McCaw? How many tries have you got? What number is your jersey?
Dan, the pilot, also talked to us about the air ambulance and what he does. They are there to help us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
We had some questions for Dan too... How old is the helicopter? Can it fly at night?
Hannah, our class councillor, reported that our school raised $690 to support the Air Ambulance.
We would like to say to you - thank you!
Thank you for being really Wacky today Ruma Ruru. I think you would agree we have had a very exciting morning looking and learning about the helicopter and seeing Jerome up close.
ReplyDelete$690 is a lot of money. Well done Goodwood

ReplyDeleteWow Ruma Ruru...I love your blog. You have so much fun in your class, I wish I could be in your room but I think I am a wee bit old. I heard and saw the helicopter this morning heading over to Goodwood School. I love the photos of your wacky hair, the helicopter, the pilot and especially Jerome...what a handsome All Black!

Does your site have a contact page? I'm having problems locating it but, I'd like to shoot you an e-mail. I've got some ideas for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great blog and I look forward to seeing it develop over time.

Wow almost $700 raised for the air ambulance! All that money you raised goes directly to helping people in need and saving lives. Great work, kids! And it must have been pretty cool to see the helicopter land on the field at school.
