"I feel like a scrub."--Hartman (Whiteland Warrior and Batesville Bulldog)

"Parker Tall...you need your own cape, and it needs to have a PT on it....Parrrrrrrker Taaaaaaall."--Suzie (Whiteland Warrior)

 In the morning, the students made SAND WHEELS. This was a very exciting activity for Ms. Barna from Roncalli. She is going to put her sand wheel on her Christmas tree. The sand came from three beaches that we have visited on the Big Island--Pololu, Puako, and Hapuna. The students also did Gyotaku; this is a Japanese art form which involves painting fish and imprinting them onto something...in our case, it was a T-shirt. In the afternoon, the students went to Puako for their final ocean lab, and the SCUBA students went on their final two dives. At the completion of those dives, they were declared officially certified PADI divers! Congratulations Parker Tall and Kaitlyn! After the dives and the lab, everyone enjoyed free time at Hapuna Beach. This was the last trip to Hapuna Beach :(...very sad. Currently, the students are studying hard for their final examination!
