The Awesome Life Education Caravan!!! - By Jouan

Last week on Thursday and Friday Room 16 went to the life education caravan or life ed for short. The life education caravan is a fun place to learn about all sorts of topics! This year we learnt about our tenana (our body.)

Lynn is the one who introduces us to Harold the giraffe. She is also the one who teaches us everything we need to keep our tenana healthy. I learnt some facts about what our tenana needs every 24 hours. Did you know that energy drinks have caffeine in them?

I learnt that I have to feed my tenana every day to keep it in tip top shape. We learnt heaps from harold and Lynn. And we got some new friends out of the experience too.

My favorite part in the experience was when the whole class sang karaoke! The song we sang was “Supercomputer”, it is a really catchy song. It was a funnny song but even the boys sang along. In fact the boys in my class sang louder than our teacher and all the girls combined!!!

We all love going to the life ed caravan. I hope you will get the opportunity to meet harold as well. I think you’ll like him.

Life Ed Van - By Asena

Have you ever been to a life education van before? Well if you haven’t then this story is going to tell you all about it! A life education van is a van that we go to and learn about our body and what it needs. The lady that teaches us is Lynn and she also comes along with a giraffe called Harold.

Last week on Thursday and Friday we went and learned about our tinana (body). We learnt heaps of stuff about our body. We talked about our stomach and what I learnt from the stomach was that it breaks down food. Lynn told us about the liver and she said, “If you ever eat any metal stuff then it wouldn’t break it down but if you go to the toilet then it would come out!” We all said “EEWW”!!

My favourite part was when we had to do the banana salute. When we stood up to do the dance I was laughing my face off. Finishing off our banana salute I stopped laughing! Although I was tired I still wanted to do it. Lynn told us that bananas was Harold's favourite food.

If you ever see a van with a giraffe pattern on it then that is the van where you can go and learn about your body and what it needs!!!
