Trip to The Mind Lab

On Tuesday 22.9.15 GRi11 went on a trip to The Mind Lab Petone and we did five activities. Those activities where 3D printing, Stop motion animations, makey makeys, card board cars and scribble bots. The highlight of my trip was 3D printing because I made a duck that goes on a key ring and I got window side on the bus there and back.

This is a pic of group 1 doing 3D printing I was in group 2:
