Helicopter Visit Photos

Yesterday a helicopter came to Twizel Area School. It was very exciting. The Kindergarten children and the children from the Twizel Early Learning Centre came to have a look too.  We invited the Helicopter Line to come because the Junior classes are learning about transport. We have been thinking about how helicopters work. Thanks Chris and Grant for telling us.


This is not the surprise but Mrs Nelson said it was!

Waiting!

Here it comes!

A helicopter on our school field!


Listening to Grant, learning about the engines and propellers

Here is the fun part!

We loved learning about helicopters. Nathan's Dad is a helicopter pilot!
