After the presentation we got our autographs. Our whole class got a photo with the All Blacks. The first all Black I went to was Ben Smith. Ben Smith's Dad works at Placemakers. My dad knows his Dad. Ben Smith was from Abbotsford. I next went to Andrew Hore This line was really big. I was waiting for about three minutes. I finally got there. Andrew was from the Manitoto. I next went to the mighty Tamiti Ellison. I got his autograph. Tamiti was from Wellington. I next went to the tough prop Ben Franks. Ben was from Canterbury, 

All blacks

Today at school we went to Peter Johnston  park to see the All Blacks. I couldn’t wait to see them. When we got there Andrew Hore was there and Tamiti.  We got to have a photo and an autograph from them. There were five schools there so it took a long time to get their autographs.  It was so cool to see them.  

       

         The All Black Surprise  

Today the All Blacks came to Peter Johnstone Park to tell us where they were raised and other stuff about themselves. Four all blacks came, there was Tamati Ellison, Andrew Hore, Ben Smith and Ben Franks. The All Blacks took a photo with every school that came, St Mary's School got their photo taken second. When that was done, the All Blacks were going to sign some signatures. They were signing lots of things rugby balls, t-shirts and some posters.  I had nothing for the All Blacks to sign so I got a poster that has all the signatures on it and I’m going to put it on my wall in my bed room when I get home.

  

All blacks

Today room 6 & 7 went to Peter Johnston Park to see some of the All Blacks.  The All Blacks that were there were Tamiti Ellison, Ben Smith, Andrew Hore and Ben Franks. When we first got there we were all excited to see them. Then we got a group photo with the All Blacks. We had to line up to get their autographs. It was a great time.  

All Blacks! (Well four at least!)

Today we had something unexpected like a visit from four ALL BLACKS!!!!

Their names were Tamati Ellison, Ben Smith, Ben Franks and Andrew Hore.

We walked for about twelve minutes to get to Peter Johnston Park and on the way we saw Green Street kindy kids and some Taieri college kids. When we had arrived we got a poster to get signed and after that we went straight back to school.

All Black Visit

Today we walked to Peter Johnstone Park to see the All Blacks. First they all said where they came from.  It was pretty interesting to know what school they came from. After they had spoken we had to line up to see them and have an autograph.  You could get an autograph from Andrew Hore, Tamati Ellison, Ben Smith and Ben Franks. Everybody got a free poster and four autographs if they wanted them. Ben Franks had to leave early because he is from Christchurch and had to get on the plane. After we got our autographs we walked back to school.

Black surprise!

Today I had a huge surprise because I saw the All Blacks, but not just me that got a surprise, the whole class. We got to see the All Blacks up close. There was only four of them. There was Tamiti Ellison, Ben Smith, Andrew Hore and Ben Franks. I adore them all. My favourite one was Tamiti Ellison because he is really good at rugby and tries his best. When we got there we had to wait about 20 minutes until they finished their morning tea break. After they were finished we got to see them.  They had to tell us where they came from and what their name was and what and how they got into rugby. I enjoyed watching them talk because I was interested in what they were saying. After they had finished talking we got to get their autographs. I love the all blacks.     

    

A complicated situation.

On the 30^th of October right before morning tea some of the class rooms walked down to Peter Johnson Park. There were four members of the All Blacks there to meet and greet us outside the fields. We waited for the autographs for either one or two hours. The names of the All Blacks were Ben Smith, Ben Franks,  Andrew Hore, and Tamiti Ellison.

There were at least five schools. Each school got a group photo and autographs on a huge poster! I waited an hour in different lines to get heaps of autographs! Some people got knuckles or hugs.  I had a fantastic time and I hope to go back next year!         

The day the All Blacks came to town

On Tuesday we went to Peter Johnstone park to meet  four of the All Blacks. They were Ben franks, Ben Smith, Andrew Hore and Tamiti Ellison. When we got there we had to wait ten minutes because they were having a manly cup of tea. First they said something about themselves then they went off to their tables and big lines were formed.

The first line I  went in to was Andrew Hore. I asked if I could have a hug from Ben Smith and Tamiti  Ellison. I knuckles from Ben Smith. There was a guy there that said we were only allowed one autograph, but I think every one there got four. I had a great time there.  It was getting to see them in real life because I've only seen them on T.V. 

Meeting the all blacks

Today room 6 and 7 went down to Peter Johnson park to meet the All Blacks.
We got to meet Andrew Hore, Ben Smith, Ben Franks and Tamiti Ellison. We
got our class photo with the All Blacks and we had to line up for their
autographs.  We got a poster to put their autographs on and we got to go to
get all the signatures. We were there for about an hour and a half and we
spent half the time in the lines. But it was worth the wait.

All Black Entry

All Black Entry
30th of October 2012
Today with room 7 we met up with the All Blacks at the Peter Johnson Park. Loads of other schools were there to met with Tamati Ellison, Ben Smith, Andrew Hore and Ben Franks. We didn't know it was happening so we had nothing to sign but paper and arms. When we got there we waited for a bit and then they came out. For a while they talked about themselves and where they grew up and stuff like that. We got a photo with then and went to line up for autographs. There were four lines and they all were long. But it was worth it. Everyone got the four autographs. I think. It was a great surprise going to see the All Blacks.

Meeting the All Blacks

On the 30th of October Room 7 and Room 6 went to Peter Johnson Park to
meet four All Blacks. They were Ben Franks, Ben Smith, Andrew Hore and
Tamatai Ellison. They are professional rugby players.

We got a BIG group photo with them. Then we had to line up to get their
autographs. There were about 5 schools. That meant the lines were long. I
got all of their autographs. It took about 1 and ½ hours. I didn't even
know this was happening. If so I would have brought my rugby ball. I am
going to put my poster on my wall.

I sure hope this happens again next year.
