Tour of the Navy Base

I thought that the tour was really boring at the beginning and that I really wanted to leave, but then we ate and the food was really good. After we ate we went on the ships for a tour and that was the funnest part because all the stuff that we learned at the beginning was all coming together and started to make sense. My most memorable part was when the tour guide locked me in one of the storage rooms at the very bottom of the boat. I really hope we can go back again because I think we all had lots of fun.

Navy Day Trip

On Wednesday our class took an interesting field trip to CFB Esquimalt, the Naval Base. We arrived in the morning and waited until the organizer, Darelle, arrived. She gave us an introduction, then immediately took us on a walk to fleet school, where the Navy students learn to do their trade. Once there, we split off into groups and started on our way.
The first place my group visited, after a quick look at the woodworking room, was the electrical section of the school. Our guide, Fillion, happened to have a thick, sort of hard to understand French accent. He showed us all these hands-on classrooms that had intricate-looking equipment. If I was allowed to, which I was obviously not, I totally would have gone and fiddled with all the wires and switches, trying to see how they all work together. After numerous confusing classrooms (due to Fillion's fast explanations and the complex diagrams plastering the walls) we ventured over to the machinery, and Fillion left us with some other guy who knew what all the machines did. I can't quite remember where that was because the whole place was so huge. Every little hall lead to another room filled with things like motors, engines, welding equipment, etc. and everything was pretty organized in each room. I was surprised about how many categories of jobs there were. Finally, our tour was finished and my head was swimming with all the information I had absorbed along the way.
Next was lunch at the cafeteria. Surprisingly, they had amazing food, but that's just my opinion. The place served everything from sandwiches and salad to pasta and cereal, and I even had marshmallow salad! It's something I will have to find out how to make. Once lunch was over and we were all stuffed, we headed out for another walk, but this time it was to go tour the ships. It turns out they are not quite as big inside, in fact, they were completely stuffy and small. Out tour guide was super nice, and he showed us around inside the ship. The stairs were really steep, but we saw a bunch of sailors effortlessly slide down them, which was a bit humorous seeing how they are supposed to be serious. There were these weird red hatches everywhere in the ship, and it turns out they were emergency trap doors used to escape from fires, and the odd curious person you may have needed to escape from when playing a prank... but never mind about that. Over all, the whole trip was pretty fun, and I originally thought it was going to be quite boring, but the people in the Navy proved me wrong. Just don't expect me to be joining the Navy anytime soon.

Our Trip to The Navy Base!

Yesterday we went to the Navy Base, as you all know! It was quite interesting to learn about what happened in the Navy. The beginning seemed sort of boring to me though, because I just wasn't as interested in the Fleet School. It might have been better if our tour guide didn't look so uncomfortable. The things there seemed like a normal school. That made it feel like we left our school to get a tour of another. Which in a way, we did. Over all, the Fleet School wasn't all that exciting. What was partially interesting in there was the huge guns we got to see in there! They were so big! What I did like about going to the Navy Base was the cafeteria and the boat. The cafeteria was really cheap for some really good food. My favourite part was definitely the boat. It was really fun to go all around in it and our tour guide was really really attractive. I'm serious. The tour might have been a hundred times worse if we didn't have him. Anyways, even though I found my love for life, the rest of the tour was really cool too! I liked the emergency doors at the bottom of the cabins. I thought that was a really cool! I also loved trying on all the fire fighting clothes. It was such a fun day!

Navy Base :)

I was talking to some people in my class, asking if they liked the field trip. I got a variety of answers, ranging from yes, no, kind of and all sorts like that. Do you want my opinion? Well I loved it! It was the coolest field trip i've ever been on. When we first got their, I wasn't sure if i was going to like it or not. Yes i'll admit the first hour or so it was boring, but once we got to the cafeteria it started to get interesting. It started off with a bus full of excited students, we finally arrived and got the tour started. The leader of our group, Neil was his name was also a Hall Tech. A Hall Tech is someone who knows all of the jobs, and went to school for them. For example, a Hall Tech would know plumbing, sheet metal, carpentry, wood working and lots more. After we got our tour of the Fleet school we walked on down to the cafeteria. At the cafeteria their were tons and tons of things to choose from. It varied from salad bars, spaghetti, sandwiches, cereal, fries and much more! Finally after that we got to go on tours of the ships! That was my favourite part, we got to go down all stairs, and in all the little cupboards! The funniest part i think would have been when Ashley St. Jean (our tour guide) locked Derek in the bottom of the ship! Derek was screaming like a little girl! :) Overall i think it was a great learning experience and i hope to go back someday! :)

My Trip to the Navy Base

Our field trip to the navy base out in Esquimalt, was a new experience for me. We went for the whole day, which was pretty awesome, but also tiring because we had to walk everywhere (except from school and back). My two favourite parts while we were there were: having lunch and having a big tour of the ships. I liked having lunch there because I got to see the cafeteria that the "navy people" get to eat in every single day ( the food was delicious!). I loved the tour because we got to climb in to almost everything that lead to new areas, and before we got to go home, I played a game with the group that I was in to see which side could put up the right flag that my tour guide said (it was a tie! 1-1).

Field Trip to the Navy Base :)

I learned a lot from the field trip to the Navy Base. I learned why they go out to sea, and what there job is. Something i learned from that, that i didnt know before, was that they do search and rescue. There job is actually very important, and taken seriously. Always hard at work, doing something. We went through the classrooms, where they get taught on what they have to do before they go to the ships. This part of the field trip was not my favourite because i found it boring and dragged on. We went to the cafeteria and they had lots of choices to choose from. This was my second favorite part :) After that we went on the big ship that was docked, it got interesting. We went through where the sailors cabins were. I personally would not like to go on the ship for a long period of time, because i get claustrophobic very easily, and their beds especially, are very close together, and there is close to no room. There was lots of stairs, and ladders going in to different places in the ship. I think the navy is a very important, and i think it is great what they do for us. I really did enjoy this field trip, and had a lot of fun.

Navy Base Woot Woot.

On Wednesday, our class went to the Navy Base, it was okay. Not really a place the girls want to be. I mean, guns and electrical, ships, shooting... whoohoo. More a guy thing I would say. Anywho, when we arrived there by bus, we first visited fleet school. We split off into two groups with each a tour guide. The group that I was in had a tour guide with bushy eyebrows. Our group walked down the halls on our way to the Electrical room. It had switches, dials... all kinds of electric material. One of the men that was at the Fleet school, told us all about what they do. Then we moved on to other rooms, a woodshop, drafting, etc. They were interesting but as I said before, more of a guy thing. After all that we visited the metal working shop and other shops that had to do with metal. The last room we visited was a huge room with a tank and somet other "dangerous" weapon. After lunch, it was said that we were going to go on a fleet ship. I didn't think it was going to be that exciting until Nicole, Kalina and I found out who our tour guide was... man. What a hot tamale. Really. That was the best part of the trip. Thank god we didn't have Mr.Who Shapes Their Eyebrows guy. So, I rate this trip 4/10 for the beginning, than 8/10 for the fleet ship tour. Enough about Hot Tamale and more about the ship, I liked the Emergency exits and the secret hatches. I also loved putting on the Firefighter outfits. Great Trip B. GREAT TRIP.

Naval Base Field Trip.

The other day our class went to the Naden Naval Base in Esquimalt, it was really fun! The first thing we learned about was the fleet school, we toured it and they told showed us all the classes that are in the building and told us what they teach in each class. There was three main trades that they learn about. The first one we learned about was Elelctrician trade which they work on computers and other high tech stuff they work on. The other trades were Stokers and Hall Tech, all these trades are "Hands on" for the students. In the fleet school they showed us different engines and machines they work on, some they use to make other stuff and others they are fixing to put back 0n the boats. The next thing we did after the Fleet school was go eat lunch and socialize with friends. After that we walked over to the boats and got a tour. We were showed the workers cabins on the boat for when they are at sea and showed us where everyone hangs out when they don't have to work and what the kitchen looks like. Our tour guide also told us some of the meanings of the words because they have different words from what we say, like for kitchen they say Gally. We were also shown where the person drives the boat and it looks like it would be very hard to see out of. My favourite part of the field trip would have to be the Tour of the Ships because it was cool seeing what the ships look like inside.

Feild trip

I really liked the feild trip because we got to see everthing the the Navy people do. I really liked when  my group and I went to check out the engines and saw how they were worked on. I liked how we got to go see the big AA gun that was pretty cool. I liked when we went to see the guys working on the chairs. After Fleet school my group and I went for food at the cafeteria (food was great).
After lunch we went to tour the ships. First, we went to the ship's bridge and  our tour guide showed us what every thing does. Then after that we went to the cabins were there was 3 beds on each side stacked up. Then after that we went to see were all the waste went (that was gross). After that me and my group went to go try on the fire suits. Unfortunately it became time to leave. That was one of my favorite field trips I've ever had.


Thanks Mr B

Esquimalt Navy base. WOOT !!

On March 14th , 8-5 went to Esquimalt navy base. It was special because they have never taken a tour on a ship. First we walked up to the fleet school. We saw the diffrent parts of the school like the Mechanices, Drawing etc. It was really cool because on the hallways walls their was really old pictures from the navy from a long time ago. I noticed that the poeple who were showing us around the class rooms were men and I noticed I only saw 2 women! After we were done in the school we went to the cafetria, the food was really good ! Then we went down to the water and walked across the jeddie. We got onto the ship and had to climb up and down really steep stairs/laders. We sat in the captins chair, Saw the Work out Room, Were they slept, And a whole bunch of little Escape holes. I thought that the tour was pretty good, their was a lot of walking in the sun. I think they should let you do more things instead of just talking. Anyways the tour was really great and was worth while.

Navy Base Review

On a scale from 1-10 I would have to rate the base an 8. The beginning of the tour was very, very boring. I had no interest in plumbing and mechanics. The comfy rolling chairs made me feel a bit better in this part of the tour. The walk up the hill was tiring but worth it (well, not THAT tiring). At the top was a deliciously stocked cafeteria. Even though I only bought some fries and a pop (I had packed my own lunch) I was still hungry for more. This was a very good part of the tour. Last and certainly not least was the tour of one of the navy ships. We got a full tour, got to see how things worked and played a flag raising game. This was my favorite part of the trip. Did I learn anything? Nothing that I already knew. I didn't take an interest in the mechanics so I didn't learn much here. The cafeteria, I didn't learn anything but I did learn a bit on the boat. As I said, I rate this trip around an 8.

Esquimalt Navy

My field to the navy base

When I got to the base with my class from school we went to the navy base where my dad works. I did not see my dad but it the base was great. We went on some ships and I saw my dads ship the Protector. The base was cool I saw where the men and women went to school to train for there trades. When I went in the school I saw the all the different trades in the building. I saw the work shops and where they had there meals in the school. I saw the wood shop, plumbing systems shop, the metalworking shop, and the engineering shop. We went for lunch in the main cafeteria and the food was so good. We walked a long way but it was worth it, I had fun. :)(: (O)_(0) :P :D

CFB Esquimalt

On Wednesday, our class took a tour of the navy base in Esquimalt. First our class took a tour of the fleet school witch is where the train people to become better at something like how to be an electrician or sheet metal or wood shop there was a lot of things that they learn there. After the tour of the school we went to the cafeteria and the food was great. after we had lunch we walked down to the navy boats we didn't get to go on the big one but the one we went on was still really big we got a tour of the boat I learned a lot like that it was in Vancouver checking every boat an my tour guild said that they caught a lot of drug smugglers and he then showed us where every body stays and sleeps and where they game it was an awesome tour of the base and then we got C D at the end and we also got book marks and then we came back to school my favorite part was walking around the ship and i had lots of fun.

Field Trip- Navy Base

Yesterday my class went to the navy base. It was by far the best educational field trip I've been to. One reason is because the food. It was amazingly delicious and there was a variety of selections to choose from. I also enjoyed the tour of the boat. My friends and I tried on fire equipment and sat in the captains chair. It was interesting that they had their own little gym so they could be in shape while they are sailing. Although we had to walk around a lot. We got a little rest on there cabin beds. It looked like a crammed uncomfortable space, but it was surprisingly comfy. Over all it was amazing. The tour people were really nice too. I hope we will go there again soon!

Navy Field Trip

Yesterday our class went on a field trip to the Naval base and I really enjoyed it! First of all we learnt about the trades they could learn there, and took a tour of the Fleet School. The were three main trades. The first one we learnt about was the electrician trade. It involved hands on work with computers, and other high tech equipment. Next, we learnt about the stoker trade. And lastly we learnt about Hall tech, which worked with sheet metal, and plumbing. We toured the base and saw huge engine parts taken apart, and many different "Hands on" work stations. My favorite part about the Fleet school was when we saw the huge mechanical guns, that shot hundreds of bullets per second. Then we went to lunch. After that we moved on to a tour of the Navy ships. Taking a tour of the ships was my favorite part of the day! We walked down to the docks and were assigned to our tour guides. My tour guide was very funny, and cracked a lot of jokes. Ha ha. he showed us the bridge, which is the only part of the ship with windows, he showed us the cabins, and Galley, and took us to a part of the ship that was under sea level. The stairs were so steep! In all, the most favorite part of the day for me, was having an awesome tour guide so us around the ships. All together, the day was very fun! :)
