Howick Historical Village

Yesterday Room 9 and Room 4 and Room 5 went on a trip to Howick Historical Village. We hopped on the bus. When we got there the first we did was to play with the toys that the kids played with when they were on the boat sailing to  New Zealand from England but the problem was that there were no toys that could fit in the box because they had to take what they needed to make the village beautiful so that they can be warm and comfy. After that we had our lunch we played a little game. So after playing games we went to the old school that the kids learnt at school. We saw lots of toys on the mat. We played with all the toys. After that we played a game.  When we finished they told us how they use electricity in 1850s. They didn’t have electricity or phones in the 1850s. Then after all that, we lined up in 3 lines. 1 line went with Willam’s mum, the 2nd line went with Ezra’s mum and the last line went with miss smith. We were all going to look at the houses and play with toys. My favourite part was looking at the hen’s and the ducks even 1 bunny. It was very fun at Howick Historical Village.

Te Oro

Today the senior school went to a trip called Te Oro to see The Man Whose Mother was a Pirate and the little kids were there from the kindy too. 

We saw a cow shaking it’s bottom and some people laughed because it was funny. My favourite part was the cow because it was shaking it’s bottom and making funny noises. 

Then this girl came like a pirate and the girl was moving because the water was moving and my other favourite part was that man who looked like a girl. 

We had fun in the end because we got to dance. 

Thank you Te Oro for giving us the gift a seat and thank you  for having us here. I had fun at Te Oro. 

Museum trip

At the museum I learnt about insect they told us lots of things about insects and it was fun. My favourite part was the spiders. It was a little scary. Then we went to the part with all the kiwis and we saw lots and lots of things. There were eggs and kiwis and elephants. Also some birds and some penguins that are getting their eggs out. I had fun.
