Our happy traveller

One of Room 22 has gone on holiday to Australia for a couple of weeks. She is very excited about it and wants to share her adventure with us. The following are emails she has sent to us so we can keep in touch... almost a modern day postcard :-)
Mrs Reid will post her emails here so we can keep up with what she is doing....

Hello class

Today was great, wish you were here.  We had a Kookaburra on our balcony 
sitting next to us when we had our Ice Cream for afternoon tea, and I saw
lots of parrots flying around.  Lauren and I had a long swim in the pool, 
there are 2 really neat kids pool areas at the resort and one of them has a 
water slide.  It was so much fun.  Look forward to shearing more with you 
tomorrow.

Hi All,
Hope you are having a good time at school.  Today I went to Currumbin 
Widlife Sanctuary.  I held a Koala, a Snake, a Baby Crocodile and fed the 
Kangaroos, Lorikeets and saw lots of animal shows, including a bird flight
show, where the large Black Kite almost touched my head with its talons.  
Can't wait to show you all the photos.

Hello,
Today I went on a boat cruise, where I saw Pelicans, Cormarands, Osprey, 
and an Eagle.  Tonight at dinner we saw a loads of Bats flying around, they 
were really big, it was very exciting.
Miss you all.

Hi there,

I had the most exciting day.  I got to get in the water with Dolphins.  It 
was amazing, I got to feed the Dolphin some Squid and throw a ball for him 
and learn the hand signals for different tricks they do.  Then I went on a 
ride called the Storm Coaster.  It was so much fun and we got soaking wet!

Bye for now!

Hello everyone,

I hope you are all good.

Yesterday I went to a famous beach called Surfers Paradise. I built an 
enormous sandcastle. I went to the top of Q1 which is like the Sky Tower. I 
had high tea at the top! Then I went back to Turtle Beach and had a swim. 
My Grandma, Auntie Fiona and Auntie Liz have also come over on holiday and 
it was great to see them.

Can't wait to see you all again soon.

Hello everyone,

Here is some more news from my holiday.

I went to a water park called White Water World. It has heaps of water 
slides and I went backwards on some of them and my Mum and Dad went 
backwards on the others. There was the Green Room, Hydro Coaster, The Rip, 
the Little Ripper and lots more.

I also went to Dreamworld and went on the river rapids, the log flume, 
motocoaster, pandamonium, escape from madagascar, gingy's glider and drove 
a vintage car. It was so much fun!

Yesterday I had lunch with my family at a surf club and then we drove to 
Brisbane. I had to do some boring shopping with my mum and dad!

Today I played at a water park with my mum's friend's little girl Isabella.
Then we went on the Brisbane Wheel and I could see for miles. We sailed 
down the Brisbane river which was really cool!

See ya later mates (as they say in Australia)!
