Elgregoe visit

This morning at lake brunner school we had elgregoe come to visit. The point of his show was to preform magic tricks and get an anti bullying message through. Some of his key catchphrases were: Use your wits, walk away, ignore, talk about it and stop. Another one of is messages are somewhere on this photo can you see what what they are?

I thought his show was quite good and the best it has been in a while. His bullying is not OK message can really get through if you listen and get the concept. Overall I though it was quite good and I hope he comes back next year with bigger and better messages and tricks.
