Have You heard of the life Education caravan before? every year we go to learn about ways of keeping our bodies healthy and safe.Last week on Tuesday our class walked to the Life Education Caravan for our session. Lynn was our teacher and she talked to us about how we can help our bodies grow.

We learned about five things one is drinking,you should drink at least five cups every day. sleeping for eight hours or more every night helps our bodies to grow.    

In the Life Education Caravan our classroom was learning about the bodies of Tam. she showed us the nervous system and digestive system.After that  lynn told us to get in groups of Tongan,Samoan,Maori ,Cook ,Island,Niuean and Afghanistan.

I felt excited because that the lights were off and Tam was funny. Harold the giraffe couldn’t do his homework he said his teacher might eat him because he is a lion.
