On Friday the 6th of August, the Year 8 students were given the opportunity to travel down to the ASB Show grounds at Green Lane. There was an atmosphere of excitement as we prepared to catch the bus. Rooms 8 and 9 were in the same bus with our teachers and the singing competition started as soon as the buses started moving. I think Room 9 won the singing competition because our Lead Singer, Mokani got all the Room 9 children motivated. Our teacher smiled at us to show that he appreciated our efforts.
When we got to the Show grounds, we were put into our groups. The first thing we did was look for a career and what was required to be in that career. The first career stand we looked at was the Navy because it looked exciting. We took some booklets and other things to do with being in the Navy.
The next career booth we went to was the DJ booth. It was cool because we made our own beats and tunes. The man in charge gave us some bags and books. After we finished from there, we moved on to the Arts Block and we took some books on tips to be the best at drawing. We went to many other booths and began to feel tired.
When we finished, the teachers called us to line up in our classes then they checked the roll to make sure everyone was in their class lines. We then made our way to the bus. When we got into the bus we started singing songs. The Room 8 boys started singing again but we were louder and better. And that was our day at the Careers Expo 2010.
What a fantastic recount Destene. I love the way you talk about your singing competition and I can well imagine that Mokani would have the troops fired up. It is good to hear about the careers that interested you. Sounds like you can away with plenty to mull over.
