Our second mystery call was with Australia they are in grades 5-7. They’re in the city of Sydney which is a very popular city. They have previously done the 24 hour World Tour at their school. They go to Inaburra Primary School. They are now watching our slide show about our state and school. They were just trying to talk like us!

We got to do our second mystery call with students and teachers from another school. It happened to be in Sydney, Australia. They are in the southern hemisphere. It was very cool to see other students in a different country because they do things a lot different than we do at our school. They were in grade 5 and 6. They were all so nice and respectful and it was so great being able to talk to them. We both got to share things about our schools and we experienced how different it can be.
They did read our shirts and found us out, witch made it really easy to know who we were. It was so much fun, they were so nice, kind and respectful to us. Really and truly such an amazing time Skyping these kids.
It was fun to learn that there are other people in the world that live the same way as we do!

Super cool. Is there a way we can view the transcripts or maybe a video recording of the transaction? Are you guys seriously going to be up all night long? So the students I guess get excused from the classes tomorrow as well as the overseeing chaperones? What a fun project ! Did everyone pack a sleeping bag ?

Hello! We probably won’t have transcripts but our Twitter has some 30 second clips of our calls. We are going to try to keep it up all night long! Students and chaperones will be here until the end of the school day tomorrow, so students will be excused from classes. Sleeping bags were packed, but I’m not sure if anyone is going to sleep with the excitement around here!

What season is it now in Sydney? Do the students go to school all year round?

I believe it is nearing the end of autumn for Sydney. I am not sure about the latter question.
