Greetings,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to our first blog for the month of February!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week we visited the Post Office as part of our inquiry about “How community helpers help us”. Before the said visit, students write a postcard to their parents for Valentine’s Day and they prepared and practiced the questions that they wanted to ask to the postal service community helpers. As soon as we arrived the vicinity, the Post office staff welcomed us warmly and took us to the room on the third floor where we all watched the video of the postal service work flow from the sender of the letters and parcels down to the receiver. After watching the video, the staff took us down to the work area where the letters and parcels are being sorted out. The postal service community helpers were very welcoming to us. They greeted us with a warm smile and a wave and we did the same. We walked through the area where our postcards for our parents where being stamped with an automatic stamp machine by the stamp man. Then, we came to the area where a huge high speed letter sorting machine was situated. How cool that was! The mail operator fed the letters and parcels with different sizes into the machine feeder and we saw how speedy they travelled under the machine and distributed up to different small bins. Students were leaping for joy and amazement while looking at the speedy motion. Thereafter, the staff took us to the other side to see the postal motorcycle. Guess what? The post bear was waiting for us there! How lovely it was to see the post bear with the mail carriers waiting to welcome us. What a great surprise! When the staff told us that we could actually get closer to the post bear, we quickly approached it with our hearts filled with happiness and gratitude. We hugged, touched, and patted it. Then, we took pictures and bid farewell with big smiles. Following that, we went back to the room and we asked questions to the staff with the questions that we prepared beforehand. All the information that we wanted to inquire and learn on our visit were adequately answered by the postal service staff. Before we went down, the staff took us to another room to get our presents. Each one got a plastic bag with different postal items inside. Many thanks from Shooting Star class. Finally, we headed out down to the first floor and got on the bus. We departed the post office waving our hands to the community helpers. What a wonderful experience we had!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weather was extremely cold but we beat the low temperature by putting on our hat and jacket and walked to the park. We played for a little while in the park and went back to school. It was short but compact!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
