ASB Waterfront Theatre/ Genesis program and The Spark 5G Race Zone trip

 Namaste Bloggers

Last week the year 5 and 6's had one of the most exciting experiences ever. We went to the Waterfront Theatre, where the kind Genesis people showed us how to use a Sphero ( bolt ) robot ( but I already knew how to use it.) They taught us  how to aim the Sphero, change the colour ( on the top ) and they taught us how to race them around the America's Cup course ( Mohit, and I won one ). 

Then we had Morning Tea, after we did that my group went to the 5G Race Zone. First we went to the wind room. It told us where the air current was coming from and how hard it was blowing. When we got to the next room and we got to do a simulation of the Te Kahu ( the ship New Zealand's going to use in the 2021 Americas Cup ). Then we watched a movie about the Te Kahu, explaining why we should win the cup again. After that we got to build our own version of the Te Kahu, we were scored out of one hundred. 

This is someone in the schools boat I couldn't find mine ( mine was the highest score in my group mine was 90)

My favorite part of today was making my own version of the Te Kahu.

These are some photos that we took

These photo's were made with AR ( augmented reality ) with the little stations in the Race Zone.

The 5G Race Zone is open to the public it is free but you're only allowed in there for an hour. Thank you for reading my blog post if you went there you can tell me what you did in the comment section below.
