Free Falling

Last week Miss Mac brought in some little parachute people.  We couldn't wait to get outside and try them.  A3 and A4 waited downstairs while two people went to the second floor to launch the parachuters.  We had races to see which one made it to the ground first.  One of the parachute people got caught in the hanging flower basket and we had to ask Mr Heihei to get it out for us! 

Getting ready to launch our parachuters. 

In the afternoon some of the children wanted to make something to try and catch the parachute before it hit the ground.  Have a look at the video to see what happened.

I really enjoyed watching that video. It was funny watching you try to catch the parachuter. Avi, you explained how you caught the parachute very clearly.

Hey what fun.
Good on you Avnish that looked like a difficult thing to do.

What a cool thing to do. I remember me and my cousins trying to catch parachuters. We didn't catch many but it was a lot of fun. Well done Avnish!

Avi, what did you make your catcher with?
