Wow! Room 8. Guess what I am doing today? I am going from England across the English Channel to France. The English Channel is a lot of water. I am going by train. How will the train get across the water? Can you find out? The traIn is called the Eurostar.
Wimbledon is not going. He is staying in England getting ready to come to New Zealand.
Sharing @ Bellevue
We shared some of Otto's adventures with the children at the Junior assembly. Otto and Wimbledon came too.
Tower Bridge
Another famous place in London is Tower Bridge.
Another castle!
This is the 'Tower of London'. I did not climb this wall. A King used to live here.
Friends!
Wimbledon and I watched the Pre-school from our bedroom window.
Riding!
I am off for a ride. Why is there a yellow bike here? Let's Google "yellow bikes in York UK"
What am I up to?
Can you tell me what this picture shows?
Train museum
Look at the wheels!
... more wheels
Look at this old wheel on the wagon.
My favourite
Look at this very old engine.
Who is this?
Look who I saw at the train museum!
Before trains...
...this is how people travelled before there were trains. What can you discover from this photo?

Wimbledon
Wimbledon is an area in London, just like Bellevue is an area in Tauranga.
There is a very big tennis court there and a very big tournament is held there every year.
Can you find out anything about this tennis tournament on Google?
Mrs Seath went there yesterday to sit on the bank and watch the big screen . It costs lots of money to go and sit in the courts to watch the games. Mrs Seath saw the best player in the world play his game. His name is Rafael Nadal. He is Mrs Seath's favourite player.
Can you find what country he comes from?
I met a new friend there. His name is Wimbledon. I told him all about Room 8 at Bellevue School.
He is going to travel back to New Zealand with us. He is bigger than me!
Do you like him? I know he will like all of you in Room 8.

To York
Room 8, I went from London to York on a train. Can you find York on Google Earth?
What can you find out about York?
York is a very old town. I even climbed a castle wall.
I went to a huge railway museum. Trains were everywhere.
I found so many wheels. Look at the pictures. Remember what we found out about wheels?
What can you see here?
