The Seniors Waitomo Cave Adventure

 We didn't take photos inside the glow worm cave because we were too busy enjoying the magical lights of the glow worms, but this is some of us just after the boat ride. We were all very impressed and wish we could go again!

Here we are at the Discovery Centre, where we learnt all about how the limestone caves were made hundreds of thousands of years ago.

 We all got to test out our wriggling skills as we squeezed through the tiny cave

Some of us even got to stretch our legs right out!

 Miss Dagg even managed to wiggle her way through
 Lunch time was at the park- we are never too far from a play ground!
 Luckily the rain held off for us to enjoy our day... and to sneak in a little play on the slide


 We really enjoyed our bush Ruakuri bush walk as there was so much to see. Lilly even found a rock with a fossil in it.

 Damon getting his share of droplets of cave water, which is said to be good luck

 Looking down into a great big cave with a river rushing through!

 Amazing building at Waitomo Caves

How lucky are we- two neat school trips in one term!! We still have lots of learning to do around the caves so keep posted as we might share some of our learning on here :)
