Life Education Bus

This week having been going to the Life Education Bus to learn more about drugs and alcohol. We have been looking at the affect and consequences they can have on our bodies and our life.

Room 2 focusing hard in the Life Education Bus.

Harold talking to Room 2.



Harold listening to what Room 2 learnt in the session.

Here are some comments students made about what they learnt:

Kerey said "In the life education bus I learnt that glue was a drug and it mucks up your brain!"

Cameron couldn't believe that there was "about 20 street names for marijuana!"

Kyle thought "that drugs and alcohol can make you do stupid things, like stand on tops of cars."

Regan was shocked "that some drug addicts started drugs at the age of 13 and that has since dropped to about 9!"

Thomas said "people can have a different personality when they drink a lot of alcohol."

Ellie learnt "that you don't have control over what you are doing when your wasted or drunk."

Lucy couldn't imagine that "some people had to take drugs just to get up in the morning or to do any little thing".

Welcome the World Winners!!

Well done to Emily and Lance.
Emily won the students vote for the best idea to welcome the world to the Rugby World Cup. Her idea was to have a fountain of L'n'P outside the front of the stadiums and people could take a drink as they entered to the games.
Lance won the teacher's vote, because he went the extra mile and made a power point presentation to demonstrate his idea of giving postcards to ticket holders as they entered. The postcards would have images of New Zealand places on them.
Fantastic effort to Emily and Lance, great ideas, keep up the good work!

Worth a look...the power of words!
