Today, the students left at 8:30 and did a tour of Dunedin city with the A block OP engineering students. We practised short, friendly and funny conversational openings and I could hear the students saying some of them. Mainly, these openings took the form of "gidday mate, how's it going?" and "great day for it" etc.
After the city tour the students all went to Chingford Park in North East Valley and did some team building activities. These games involved trying to get all of your team members over an imaginary electric fence by just using a plank of wood, going through an invisible maze, riding a bicycle along some unbalanced planks, making bridges to walk on, etc. The activities started around 10am and broke for a BBQ at about 12:30, then continued on until about 2:30. The weather held out, so all in all I think that it was a great day.
I plan to talk about the activities and experiences that the students had tomorrow in English class from 10-12.
