smoke room

Last week, Tokomaru School walked to the Tokomaru fire station for a visit.
While we were at the fire station the fire men and woman told us how to be fire wise. they told us how to get down, get low, get out and stay out and we got to practice that in the smoke room.
The smoke room is a room full of peanut oil smoke that comes out of a special smoke machine and you have to practice getting down getting low getting out and staying out. I went in with Jayde, Moio, Lauren, Cheymani and Jono. We got a lolly pop and juice when we got out and when we got out the second time we got the same but we also got a fire wise activity book.
They also told us about how candles are sort of dangerous and where and where not to put them.
We had a photo by the fire truck and after we got certificates and we walked back to school.
I hope you enjoy this video!

touch rugby!

on Friday the 1st of April (April fools) some students from Tokomaru school went to a school touch tournament.

before i even got to play my first game i slipped and almost broke my leg so i was out for a wile witch really upset me.

the games that the year 5 - 6 were playing was 1-0 against Linton camp so we lost, 2-1 against tuatea so we WON! and 1-1 against opiki so we tied.

i had such a fun time at the game even though i had a bad leg and i hope i can do it again next year even though i am not really a sporty girl.
