Jason's Study Trip to New Zealand

Hi,

Jason is now in Auckland, New Zealand, on a school study trip...!!!

How lucky are these kids these days... compared to our time...!

Going to the beach was a BIG thrill already then...!

Anyway, this is the first time he is overseas without the parents so he has to learned to take care of himself; like keeping his passport and managing his money + packing and unpacking his luggage. The teachers are not going to 'mother' them as told to us during the briefing.

While we miss him but we are not worrying for him as he should be in good hands and he has been travelling with us to Australia quite often, the last trip was in June this year.

Here are a few shots extracted from their blog on the trip.




Jason is 4th from your Right; standing behind.






At Changi Airport, Terminal 3, at 6:30am for a 10 hours direct flight to Auckland.

5 hours difference, so they will be arriving close to mid-night...!

10 students + 2 teachers.


Here they are at LaSalle College in Auckland for 3 days of schooling.









A friendly socer game during recess... 2-2 score!


Jason is at your extreme left, fixing his shoe laces.





On top of Mt Eden with the city skyline in the background.







You can even see the Skytower in the photo, which they will be visiting the following day.


They will be making a few field trips to see the Waitomo caves, Kiwi fruit orchard, etc.....

Will be back home this coming Sunday early morning like 6:30am........
