Mask parade.

On friday the 15 of October Nayland primary and other schools gathered at the car park outside of Rebel sports for the 2010 mask parade. Our theme was deep ocean because it was our topic for last term,my space, our space and outer space. Our class room 5 was angler fish and we found out that they were the size of a golf ball and that they had a light on the top of there head, to attract fish. At the end of the mask parade there was prize giving and we won the most creative.
