MOTAT TRIP WITH ROOM 7
On wednesday the 13 of may 2015 Room 7 went on a Motat trip
on a bus it was fun because first we went on different groups some student were in Honeys aunties group and some went to Mrs card, Mrs Maruariki and Mrs Parker's group.
When we got separated into 3 groups we went into the bus so we can go to Motat. When we arrived we stopped next to the gate and the instructor came and she introduced herself to
us and her name was katherine and she walked us to the
rotunda next to the cafe.
Second we had morning tea then all the teachers got a map
and told us to go wherever they tell us to go and Mrs
parker told us to go to the k900 steam train it was
interesting there because the train was old and it was useable in the 1902. After the the steam train we went
to the pump house to see the old pumps that was working
when there was no water and the pumps that was working was
working until the 19’s.It was a good because it we would
not have stayed alive without the water.
Third we went to the old village’s next to the old town. There was a lot of food, clothing and furniture it was
strange because there were dolls and fake trains and that.
It was fun because there was interesting aguitment and
tools in the workhouse. And after we went to the 700
south it was cool because there was a famous guy and he
was on the 5 dollar note it was cool and he’s name
is sir edmund hillary he was first person to climb mount
everest and the first to reach to the north pole.
When we were finished in the 700 south we went to the other rooms.In the other room had cake and a bread truck and
chainsaws and other equipment. And in the next room it had
the old fire places and the fire trucks and how it worked it was so cool because they where old and worked in the olden days but now we have different fire trucks and our trucks are bigger than their old fire
trucks.
When we went to our last room we went through the mirror maze it was very
challenging because we saw ourselves instead the ground.There were some dead ends and some tricky places to go through that why it was challenging
because it was very hard to go through.Then we went to a movie room me, Vainikolo and Whitney saw this old lady trip up on the steps.Then we watched this movie on the big screen. We only went there for 3 minutes
then we went to our last place it was full of connective stuff that was used in the war There was even a pigeon bird that was use also It was there to send letters to the people at the bass or at there own place.The war was really bad and it was not for a under age child. It was very bad because there was very bad gas and numbed feet and it was cold and freezing
they hardly have any food and so we went and learned about morse codes and other things we were using the typewriter and the morse code messages and
all the metals and we wrote a message to the bass and put it on the pigeon.
When were finished we went to the bus and said “ farewell ” on the way to school i went to sleep because i was tired and i got up when we were at school.Also i had really great fun there.
