Our Journey to the Past

Fakaalofa Lahi atu family and friends,

This term our inquiry is 'Where we are in Place and Time'. The Incredible Two's along with the rest of the Fledglings team got to go on a journey to the past. We visited the Howick Historical Village where we had an experience of how people in New Zealand lived in the colonial days from the 1800's.

We went to the old school house where we curtsied and bowed to the teacher. We sat at old wooden desks and wrote on slates. We made butter with Mrs white and even got to taste it on a cracker. We learnt about the olden day toys and got to experience washing using a washboard. There was a lot to see including some household items that the colonial people used which you wouldn't see in most of our houses today.

Our class inquiry question is 'How have our clothes and transport changed overtime?'

Thank you to all our parent helpers who came along, we couldn't have gone on this trip without your support. 

Take a look at our journey to the past...please leave us a comment below.
Fakaaue Lahi (Thank you)
