Life Education

 On Wednesday we did our last Life Education lesson. Life Education ( LE ) comes each year and teaches about different things.  This year it was about change; change in your body, change in you life and things like that. LE comes in a big bus, kind of like a school bus but with the school inside !

 The first session we did was on Monday and we wrote on a white board who are our " Superheroes "; who we can go to when things get tough. We also learnt a bit about neurons. Neurons are cells in our brain that make connections about things. For example you learn a new times table then your neurin would make a connection with another neuron, that knows about that sort of stuff and each time you practise that new times table your connections get stronger. If you are wondering how this all connects up to change, I will tell you. When you are going through a time of change your neurons are going CRAZY !! Making an uncountable amount of connections !

Then we watched a video on change. There was a boy called Billy who was moving from the country to Wellington and we saw how he dealt with this change. Fast forward to our second and last sesion. We learnt about characteristics that make a nice person to go to if you are struggling with change. After that went on a journey to  a newly discovered plant via rockit. Just kidding ! We actually watched a video that made you think that ! We were the first class EVER to watch this video and see how good it was. The planet was a place were there was no change at all, and we saw pictures of their daily life. The video was in animation so it wasn't that realistic but when we were taking of the camera shook and I started feeling like I was actually in a rockit. So all in all Life Education is a fun experience !
