Day One In The City

Monday 3rd September

  • Today my group and I participated in activities such as "Leisure and Entertainment" and the "Tour of town hall". The tour came first at 11:15-12:30. Our group met Mr Brice and other groups outside the town hall. Once inside we were greeted by a nice man by the name of Glen. Glen firstly showed us a statue of Queen Adelaide and a picture of early Adelaide and explained their story. After this we were shown upstairs into the auditorium where sat a huge organ and where the Yr 12 Valedictory service was held. Then we were shown the Dining hall, where weddings and small concerts were held. We were then taken back downstairs to be shown the room of Queen Adelaide and the Adelaide City Council table where all of the meetings were discussed and viewed.
  • After the tour of Town Hall my group and I walked through Rundle Mall, Rundle Street, King William Street and North Terrace adding to the activities on the "Leisure and Entertainment" activity. Before this however the entire group walked to the Myer food court for lunch. After belly's were full and discussions had finished we set off to discover Entertainment stores and Leisure centres.
  • At he end of the day my group and I interviewed Quentin from City Beach. He was very helpful and he gave us many answers that will help us to answer the guiding question.
  • This day was very full on, fun but tiring. My only concern was what bus to catch home and now what bus to catch to get into the city.
