Saint-Boniface

On septembre 28,2009 three teachers took a group of kids to St.bomiface for a French field trip. The three teachers were, Mrs.Doig, MrsBollegraf and Mrs.Malcom.

When everybody arrived in St.Boniface they were at the City Hall. They would then walk to a park, across the street and find the guide people. With the pieces of paper that the teachers handed out they would have to write down 48 words in French with their english words beside them.

The guides showed everybody how to use the GPS units that they had. There were six groups of kids with a teacher/helper and each group had three GPS units.(there were 18 GPS unites in all). The guides showed everybody how to use the GPS units and then all the groups were ready to start the big Scavenger Hunt. They had to use the GPS units to find their destination.

When everybody started the Scavenger Hunt they were happy and cold at the same time. They were happy because they were doing a Scavenger Hunt and because they were missing school. They were also cold because it was rainy and windy. They did the Scavenger hunt for about an hour or two.

Then they gathered at the City Hall and went to the college and went to the cafeteria and ate lunch. Then the kids and teachers/helpers could order their lunch or buy lunch at the cafeteria.

Then they walked to the cemetary and did another Scavenger Hunt in the cemetary. They did not use the GPS units in both Scavenger Hunts, just in the first one and then they gave them back.

When it was all over and they were at the school they were probaly thinking it was worth the trip.

And that is a day in the French Club in St.Boniface.
