Museum Trip (Fran)

Last Friday we had an interesting trip to the museum. There were five girls in my group. We left from school on the bus at 9am. It seemed like we were on the bus for one hour. When we got to the museum the weather was chilly but the sun was out.

First we explored the museum as we were in the first rotation. We went down the old street and then upstairs to the Antartica room. I really liked the polar bears because they looked so frozen in their environment.
After having a break outside we visited the Paua house and learnt about Kiwiana by doing a card quiz. I thought the house was very cool as they had a large collection of paua on the walls.
Next we had lunch by the fountain and all the girls played inside an old drooping tree that touched the ground.
Finally, Anthony taught us some myths and legends of Aotearoa. I thought the stories were very interesting but I had already heard two of them before.
Overall it was a spectacular day!
