OUR VISIT TO THE STONE COTTAGE
Yesterday was a lovely day. We were planning to go to the stone cottage. Luckily we are close to the cottage, because it is just across the road from our school. At the front door we saw a woman dressed like she was from the 1900’s. She introduced herself as Terry. Then as we were about to go inside we saw Patrick, the historian of the stone cottage.
The first room we went to was where we met Josephine, and she was one of the people who have helped to take care of the cottage for many years. I was interested in the kitchen where they used the fire.
The second room was the bedroom where there were a lot of interesting things. The one that caught my attention was the potty, and we learned that it was the mother’s job to throw it away and clean it every day. The moustache cup is also interesting because they rested their moustaches on the lip of the cup so the hairs didn’t get wet.
I think that our visit was very interesting because my dad picks us up everyday outside the cottage and I never knew what it was. Now I can share my knowledge with my family.
Yesterday we played Kia O rahi from after morning tea to lunch and we had to wear PE gear to not get our uniform dirty. The teams are rimu, rata, kauri, totara. I loved playing my game and I was very fast. The winning house is……………………………………….. Kauri!!! Sadly we lost but that’s OK. At least we had fun
Today I did this screencast of my learning about Pelicans.
Last week in Room 6, we ate ANZAC BISCUITS. Mrs. Agnew bought them for us. At first, they were not eating because they were for ANZAC day. Finally, ANZAC day came and it’s time to eat the biscuits. When I ate one, it made me think that I was eating sugary donuts in Jeddah. I really missed it and now I can’t eat it any more because they have shut down the store in Jeddah.
The biscuits were round like the tyres of a car. It felt crumbly and bumpy in my mouth. Did you know? In 1915 The women used to bake these cookies to send to the soldiers during World War One.`
Today we celebrated the 175th Jubilee and I had to leave early because my Mom had work. On Friday we played sports with different teachers. My favourite part was the time we dug up the time capsule. We took the old items from 25 years ago.
On Sunday my family and I came back for mass. There where many people there and even three priests. I saw a little girl sitting on the platform and four men were carrying the little girl. She gave the bible to the priest. After mass we went to the hall and we sang three songs. All the parents were clapping and having fun. We did not have lunch there. I enjoyed the celebration of our school’s 175 year history.
