howick historical village


On the 9th of March rm 25,24 and 23 went to Howick Historical village.
When we got there we lined up and then we sat on the steps.
Then Mrs Rodgers and Mrs Helen  introduced them self and the village.
 We had our morning tea and lined up into a girl and boy line.
Then we went into this olden day house kind of place and we had to do a scavenger hunt in a type of code. Once we figured it out we went to figure out the words in  
  Semaphore and Morse  code
It was awesome.
What was your favourite thing there?

  4. Great recount Rita! I am glad you enjoyed the trip especially learning new forms of communication. I really enjoyed the lesson with the teacher, where she went around checking students nails to see if they were clean or dirty.

  6. Hey Rita, great to see your awesome writing. Like Mr Greenfield and your teacher, I really liked the school house. I thought it was so amazing how times have changed. Imagine how boring our classrooms would be if children were only allowed to talk when they were asked to. :(
