The school was Hernando Elementary in Florida.
We found out that it was 5pm Tuesday there for them and they had stayed behind after school to Skype us with questions.
We found out they have a cafeteria at their school where they can buy their lunch.
We found out their school is one hour drive from Disney World...they say it is expensive and always really busy there.
There are 700 kids at their school which goes from Preschool through to Grade 7.
If I have missed anything you learnt guys....make sure you write it in your 'reply'/'comment' .
Hi I'm Bree-Ann I'm from Tamatea Intermediate, I enjoyed getting to know where they are from and what they like. The interesting part was when they froze and had to end the call I found out that it was 5:00 the day before when it is 9:00 in the morning here. Can you do a kiwi accent
ReplyDeleteHi there, I am Jackson from Tamatea Intermediate School in Napier. I loved the skyping Hernando Elementary School this morning because I found out how american students live their lives 17 hours behind us. The skype was interesting because I learnt that Citrus County is a city in Florida which is a state in The U.S.A., and I learnt that a manatee (or sea cow) is like a giant seal that is native to Florida. I would like to know how big a manatee is.

ReplyDeleteHi my name is Mikayla and I am from Tamatea Intermediate in Napier. The things I enjoyed about our first skype was talking to them, meeting new people, finding things out about them and laughing. The things I found out about their country and their "FUNNY" little accent. (lol) The information I found out was they were an hour away from disney land and it is very packed and dear to go in. If there was one place they would like to visit for year where would it? and why?would they like to visit New Zeland? and do they see famous people? and who ?
