We assembled at the school gate and traveled to the Botanical Garden by bus. It was a long way to the destination and we sang merrily all the way. The Botanical garden is a very beautiful place. We made a short tour round the garden and took some pictures of the whole class. Then we played a lot of games on spacious pieces of grassland. One of the boys brought along his guitar and we sang our favorite songs. We laughed, talked and danced too. After a delicious meal with various kinds of food that we brought we all took a rest.
