Went to our first football game yesterday, with the students and faculty of Chagrin falls. Go tigers!!
As we got to school early in the morning we were greeted by an air of excitement as cheerleaders were handing out stickers that showed their support for the tigers. From floor to wall every thing was covered by orange and black banners.
The excitement wasn't long lived as our learners had to first do a presentation in the filled to the brim auditorium. We were very proud of the manner in which our country and school where promoted by them, especially Michel and Dillon in their " help my sterk lyk" shirts, well done , you have made us all very proud.
Before we could go to the game we had a field trip to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum and the Science Centre in Cleveland on the banks of the great lake Erie.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum was a wonder to behold. A place where we saw an abundance of guitars, the history of rock and roll music and rock memorabilia including the Lady Gaga dress made out of beef, yes that's right beef! We had a wonderful time playing around in the science centre. We made tornadoes out of smoke, played with bubbles, landed shuttles on the moon and did a lot more. Then it was time for the big game, Tigers vs Revere HS. Now in South Africa we have rugby but here they have football, cheerleaders and a 100 member band playing at any given time. I find the game rather exciting, the thought of taking somebody down like they owe you money is epic! Our boys took some time in teaching the cheering zoo, some of our school's cheers and may I say, in the language of the young folk, that it was "sick".
