ASB School Trip - Escape Room

On Wednesday 16th of August, 6 students from Wesley Intermediate were selected to take part in a group to participate in the Escape room challenge. The cool thing was there was a prize for the first, second and third place. The activity was based on how to get out of debt, and what kind of occasion are worth borrowing money, leaving you with debt to pay back. I had so much fun and can't stop wishing I could go back and try out one of the other rooms. Our challenge was to help 'grandma' escape from debt. We decide to use her talent (baking the best cookies in the world) to earn money We managed to 'escape' from debt by helping 'grandma' start up a cookie store. That way she is able to have money for herself and also enough to pay back the money she used to start the cookie shop in the first place. We made it out in 74 minutes and 30 seconds. My favourite part of the escape room was walking through the closet. It reminded me of a Narnia. We had to work out how many cookies grandma had to make to pay back the debt and how much profit she would make by selling one of her famous, delicious cookies. Thanks to Mrs Brink for driving us there and back (and allowing us to eat by her classroom when we got back) and for looking after us the whole time. It was lots of fun.
