Begin your recount writing here:

As Tuesday the 14th of May graced us with its presence we travelled to the Fo Guang Shan Buddhist temple.
We were there to participate in the 3G 4G event. 3G means 3 goodness and 4G mean 4 givings.
We walked around there temple participating in activities. My group started by first entering and talking to a teacher
in this art gallery about 3G 4G and what it means. We then made a flower not a real one but we made a lotus.

After we had made them we watched a video about a Buddha. How he practiced through his life to be a Buddha.
It showed how he helped others and how he lived by 3G 4G.

We then walked upstairs to this time hallway which showed day and night using pillars.

The teacher explained what the hallway meant and we moved on. We entered a small library   

to talk about the books and what we get from a library. After we went outside were we arrived to
get water tattoos we were told to hold them for 40 seconds for them to work they came out amazing.
Once we got these cool tattoos we had a break. During this break we were given some cookies and water.
We sat and talked for a bit we then got a picture with our tattoos. When we had done everything outside we
headed inside to meditate and bathe a very small statue of a Buddha. We were given a very small  type of bell
which i’ll call the 3G 4G bell once we had them we blew on them a bit soon after we left to come back to school.
