Today was the day when Team 4 and 5 went to go see Dr Ben Carson. I was so excited to see him because he was so famous that he was a neurosurgery. That means he did surgery on the people’s brain and he succeed through the whole surgery.

When we got there we waited for someone to come up on stage but a song came on called the Duffy song and we started singing. Before Dr Ben Carson came on the stage this man called Henry walked on the stage instead. Then he said “hey” in a little baby voice and we started to laugh hard out. After that he shouted out “Ki Ora” and then everyone said “Ki ORA” back.

After he said “Ki Ora” he told us all these funny things. But all I wanted was to see Dr Ben Carson so much. Then Henry called up Dr Ben Carson and we all started to cheer and some people were yelling out, even me. Dr Ben Carson came on the stage and he told us about himself and his mother. Ben Carson told us to be nice to each other and told us “when you get home you can tell your mum and dad that you are so great to have a lovely mother and father that they always have your dinner ready all the time.”

He said to us “ do you know the words THINK BIG” mean, and we said “NO”. Then he told us T is for Talent, H is Honest, I is Insight, N is Nice, K is Knowledge, B is Books, I is In-depth Learning and G is God. I thought that was really nice.
After he started to speak really fast I didn’t even know what he was saying and then he stopped and he was even puffing out. He did this to show us how amazing our brain is.

Henry came back on the stage and then he told us to “stand up and sing the song” so we did. Then the Duffy song came on again while the schools were going out of the theater. I learnt all about Dr Ben Carson and I thought he was cool. All of the schools were walking towards the door, but before that we got to have an Up and Go drink and an apple each.

Pt England school walked to our buses and we went back to have lunch. I said to my friends “I HAD A GREAT DAY.”
