Last month ST’ class visited the Antartica exhibition in Athens.
First of all we and our teachers took the bus.When we arrived in Athens we went to the exhibition.
Then a guide told us about Antartica.She showed us around.There were scientist uniforms in a room amd some students wore the uniforms. It was very funny!
Later we saw the scientist tents and the food which they eat.We visited the “temperature room”.It was very cold ! Brrrrr!!!We saw Antartica’s animals such as: penguins,whales and seals.We played games about Antartica we used the virtual snowmobile.
At the end we went to the projection room and we saw life in the south pole such as fishermen,icebergs,igloos,vegetation and snow.
It was an awesome experience.

Two weeks ago we went on a school trip to Athens because a theatre group put on a play and we went to watch it.It’s called ”Peter’s great walk”.
There were a lot of students from other schools.The play was about the life of a young boy during the second war.There were many actors playing the parts of different characters.

The customes were fantastic. The parts were very good! The play was a comedy and the music sounded very nice.During this theatrical play we felt how it was to live at these old times.
We hope that we will watch again an interesting theatrical play in the future.

A week ago we went on a school outing to St.George on foot.
We were walking for 45 minutes and then we arrived. When we arrived we played football,basketball and hide and seek.
The weather was sunny and we had a very good time and finally we returned to school on foot.
