MCA

We went to the MCA and found out some information about the museum.
also walked around the galleries and found three artworks that i like write their names and the name of the artist. After came back school, we wrote a brief description. It felt difficult a part for me, moreover i didn't understand picture mean.
Finally, We did game and our team won it. So I was happy~.

MCA

Today we went to the MCA see the Aboriginal bark paintings, I saw one that is an interesting look at the three men running. The viewer can't tell what they're feeling, but their posture is very interesting, the three men are in the same funny posture, the painting name also make the viewer feel happy, it's call Three mimih men running.

Stop the bus!!!!

We went to the MCA to find out a few questions from karen. It's funny the person who was in the MCA couldn't answer us any questions. Was you really working here!?!?!?

We visited a lot of aboriginal bark painting. Some of them could easy to guess what meaning it is but the others hardly to tell. Also, we learnt to stand on the reviwer's side to discribe works using adjectives. It's difficult to present what feeling people get by seeing those comtemporary art and write it right in second language. But, we did it. YA!

Treasure Hunt

The Girls explored Sydney today trying to find the answers to 10 questions and bring me back 6 objects. They had to use their English skills to ask people for help, information and directions and they had to convince a stranger to have a photo with them!!

They all did a great job racing around the city on their treasure hunt. Read the stories of their adventures below.

Treasure Hunt

Today~!! We had to treasures to find 6 thing and Keran gave us 10 questions.If our team win this game, she will give some chocolates.We decided by lot. So ada and me constitute same team.First, We went to the George Street find the name of the cathedral next to Town Hall.When we went to the there, we couldn't find building. So we asked someone about cathedraland he kindly answered our questions. After that, We went to the Sydney tower to find out cost to do the Skywalk at the top of the Centrepoint Tower at night and ada asked a man about the price, he was also good to tell her au $65 for adult. Next we took a photo with the fountain that was in the matrix movie in Pitt Street. After took a photo, we found the big gallery in Circular Quay and brought a pamplet from this, and we went to the cadman's cottage Historic site for solve a question. Then we went to the tourist information, because brought a free postcard. We found a beautiful flower and coaster from pub while we were going to the Custom House, after we went to the martin place for know the name of the big bank, so we found it. Next we went to Hyde park for find large building which looks like a church. However, it is not a christian church. It is the place of worship for another religion. I think it was the most difficuit question and we made a mistake. After had to find the importance of the statue of a soldier in martin place and It is the council of the city of sydney.

Hard working to get Chocolate !

First, we went to Centrepoint tower to know about the skywalk price at night. So we asked at the information desk. Next we went to Elizabeth street to find out a large building. When we
walked through Hyde park, we got a flower. while we looking for the building's name and religion,
Shelina asked someone to get information, but It wasn't correct.
Anyway, while we were walking to Marin place, Shelina stole a coaster from a pub (we didn't bother anyone) . Then we arrived at Martin place where we found the information point (kiosk). We asked some questions to information woman who was friendly. After we found out the big bank which is a commenwealth. There were some interesting people who were wearing orange colour clothes and doing advertisement something, so we took a photo with them. After that we found the statue of a soldier the information woman told us where it is. Then we moved to Circular Quay to visit the art gallery and the tourist information office. We went to the art gallery first to take a pamplet and to know what type of art is in there.
There also were a information desk, so we could know answer easliy asking the information women. While we were walking to the tourist information office, we bumped into Hyeran's team. It made us getting uncomfortable so, we ran after we met them.
Finally we went to the tourist information office to get a free postcard and to ask the last question and where the fountain that was in the matrix movie is. Actually we took photos with two fountains ( one was in Hyde park , other one was in Martin place) but we didn't if we were correct.
We asked a man who we met yesterday. It was fun but he didn't know about the fountain.
Anyway we succeeded in doing our mission.
We ran to our school to be the winners.

Treasure hunt for chocolate!

First we went to the Centrepoint Tower to find out about the price at night, but we didnt find it from the pamphlet,so we went to the top of level to ask for information. Next, we went to the Hyde Park to get to know the church's name and which religion it is, while we were there we took a photo of the flower in Hyde Park.
After that, we went to the Martin Place to find out what the big bank's name is,while we were walking to get there we took the coaster from a bar without anyone noticing.(Shelina good job!) We saw the information nearby the bank, when we took a photo of the big bank, we wanted to ask!!!!! BUT, there was an elderly lady who is cute and nice for us , she helped us to find out the cathedral next to Town Hall,While we were asking that question we took a pamphlet of art. After we asked that question we wanted to get more information( that's what we came for!) ,but it's lucky for us , she wanted to answer more which we had already done! @_@ We are polite kids it's rude to go away without saying thanks. Becuase there was some question which were needed to deal with,sorry we were in hurry. Hey!! Was there anyone who wanted to take a photo with our cute and beautiful girls?Ok...it's you two who were on stilts.(We took a photo with stangers was done) Next, we went to the tourist information,so that we could find out another question as soon as possible, to ask about the oldest residence in Sydney.It's funny to go there because we asked for the same person yesterday, while we took three free postcard there.
Finally,we finished the whole questions. We noticed that we were totally wrong when we came back and check the answers with Karen, which the church in front of the Hyde Park is not what we wanted. So we ran as fast as we can to find out the answer about the Great Synagogue Church,while we were standing there one kindly old man came to help us.
Oops i forget to mention about taking a photo with fountain that was in the matrix movie.It's funny to say that because we didnt know where it is. So, we took a lot photos with fountain what we saw in Sydney, what smart girls we are, becuase we did it right ha........

Treasure Hunt!!!!!!!!!!!!(I'm tired...T.T)

First, we went to Hyde park to find out a large building which looks like a church. we knew that St. mary's cathedral was right church which we had to find so we wrote down this name of the church confidentely. While we were walking around Hyde park, we found a flower which we had to take to Karen. Next we went to Martin place where is located near George street to find the statue of a soldier. But we couldn't find it easily so we wanted to ask an information lady where we can find this statue. She is in her early 60years, and was so slow that we couldn't make hast. After that we asked her about the statue, we met two strangers who we could take a picture with. We hurried up going to another destinations to find out name of the big bank in Martin Place. It seemed to be difficult to find,but as soon as we saw the building, we knew it easily. The Commonwealth bank building is ornate and grand. After that, we went towards Circular Quay to go to big gallery that is called the MCA. Before entering the gallery, we found a pamphlet, but we wanted to know the exctely type of art in gallery. We were getting more and more tired but we had to find a final question and we went to the turist centre in the Rocks where we have been yesterday. It might be expected we found the information about the oldest residence in Sydney easily. On our way to come back to academy, we dropped in to the pub to take a coaster secretly. Our heart was pounding like a drum and we started running to get to our academy eariler than another team. Although we arrived at the G.V early, we found two wrong answers and we had to come out of school to find out the right church. It was easy to confuse with the St. mary's cathedral where is locatted in Hyde Park.
Finally, we get to school at 12:40 a.m. and we were checked our ansewers from Karen. She applaused to us and we prouded to do well ourselves.
I can't forget today forever and as soon as I arrive at my home, I may go to bed except dinner.
