Halswell Quarry.

AT the Halswell Quarry we went on a tramp walk it was fun but very retiring from
walking up very steep and high hills.

We had so much fun and games that we were all tired when we got back school.

On Tuesday this week we went to Halswell Quarry. We went in cars .My Mum helped by bringing her car. We took Nicole.P , Chontelle and Mikayla . When we got there we met under some trees and had morning tea. Then we could run around and do whatever . There was a big steep hill there and everyone was going up the hill and then running down.
Then morning tea was over , we went class by class up the track to see views, and facts along the way. We went higher and higher everytime and the views were getting better all the time.Then we started going down hill it was fun cause every so often there was a really steep bit you could pretty much slide down and then skid at the end.Finally we got to the bottom we went to the single mens house . There were alot of old things some of us even got a picture taken of us in the bath!. Then we went back for lunch and after lunch we had a play around and then we had to do environmental art. Me and Mikayla made a stick girl made out of pine cones and logs and bark and leaves. Then we went back and then we had to go home my mum took us back to school but I went home early.

It was really fun because we did a really long walk and learnt about the history of the Halswell Quarry. After we got back from the long walk we had lunch. Then after we had lunch the teachers told us to make something only out of nature so Ashleigh and I made a stick man out of pine cones, sticks, and rocks. It was really fun making things out on nature. And also climbing up the hills was really fun because we fell over alot. Ashleigh's Mum took Chontelle Nicole.P Ashleigh and I to the Halswell Quarry and back to school. On Wednesday Mrs.Patten showed all of the class the photos that we took. There were alot of photos showing us the pictures of what the other children made out of nature it was amazing. There were also alot of photos of the view from Halswell Quarry and alot of Photos of children climbing the hills. When we all got back from the Halswell Quarry we were all tired and wanted to go home but apart from that we had a great day!!!!!
