#Classified

Today is the day that we do Classified. We have to Skype a moostery school and find out their school name, island, region and address. We asked them our first question and it was "are you on the South Island" and we managed to get it correct. That means we figured out their island. Then we asked " Are you in the south land region?" and it was correct on our first try. So that means we guessed their region. Then we started guessing what they are near and then we asked if they were on/near highway 6 and it was correct again. We then figured the closest one was probably Limehills School. Yay, we guessed their school name so that means we have won the classified challenge. Limehills School just need to guess our school name so we carried on until they guessed that our school is Ormiston Primary. At the end we all had fun.
What we figured out was that they are on the South Island, South Land region and their school name is Limehills.

    1. Hi Henry,
      Thanks for the feedback and by the way mystery was supposed to be spelled that way because is was part of the challenge somehow.
