Our Subway Visitors

On Monday Mr and Mrs White, owners, of the Havelock North Subway came to Parkvale school to talk to us about their product. We had 3 questions for them.
1. How do you advertise your product?
2. How do you decide on the fillings for your product?
3. What do you need to do to prepare your product?

Mr and Mrs White told us the history of how Subway came into being and how they were the first couple to bring 'Subway' to the Bay. They were very helpful in giving us expert advice on filling choices and food preparation. Thank you Mr and Mrs White for taking the time to speak to us and, also, for bringing us some yummy subways and bread to eat for morning tea.

Konnichiwa everyone. I just thought I would post you some pics (there are heaps) of  my holiday in Japan.

• My son Karl plays for a Team called Canon Eagles. We were given a raincoat pack and a tee shirt and those inflatable banging tubes. Then it was so funny, all the supporters on both sides practised their chanting lead by those guys down the front, one was on a megaphone, before the game started. The team is escorted out by young rugby players, and after the game the team lines up and bows to both supporter sides. Everything over here is so organised and practised but it's fun because they build atmosphere and team spirit. By the way Karl's team won. 

 

This is Callum Bruce, another Hawkes Bay player who plays for Canon Eagles with Karl.説明を追加

Here we are in the team's dressing room. Everything is so flash. Japan is an amazing place to visit. Some things are the same as New Zealand but so many more things are different, the language is a huge barrier of course. However, we have been lucky. We had a Japanese guide when we travelled and of course family and other New Zealanders who have lived here awhile to help us. When you all get older but not as old as me, you must travel to Japan and experience this wonderful country. I'm off to my grandson's Japanese school tomorrow. Gambatte, (Do your best) Ja mata ne (See you later)
