Museum Trip (SophieR.)

Last Friday we went to the amazing Canterbury museum. The weather was fine with a light breeze. There were 5 people in my group. We left from school on the bus at 9 AM.

First, we went to the old Christcurch streets and we got to ride on the horse and the penny farthing. We also got to see what the olden days clothing and hairstyles. The old toys were also interesting.

After that, we had a break and went climbing the big trees. I found a big gap and Mr T was very surprised to see me up there. When we went inside, we played a matching game and learnt about kiwiana icons. We also went to visit the amazing Paua house. Fred and Myrtle must have spent years collecting and polishing those shells.
Then we watched a movie about the Paua house and we learnt that Fred collected the shells but left them lying around on the floor. So Murtle started hanging them up on the walls.

We all had an awesome day and hope to go back there another day!
