Tumu's awesome museum trip!!!

Welcome back to A's awesome blog

On  Monday the 16th of September we went on a trip to the museum in the city, It was only Tumu that went. We all split up in groups, in my group was Zoe.n, Ethan, Lucas.c, Jimi, Archie.f, Jack, Charlie and Gabrielle. Each group had their own parent, teacher or helper!!! 

My group looked at the Birds first, The other places we went in was the Asian arts, The antarctic place, The dinosaur place, The olden days hall, The gemstone and rooks room, The Maori room, The living Canterbury and the best part...  The room where you can touch EVERYTHING. 

There was a staff that showed us a room with things the Maori people used at least 500 years ago. 
The things that we got to use was a drill that looked like this...  What you do is you put a piece of wood under it and then you have to keep pulling the string like a Yo-Yo, Not up and down but side to side.




















A Fire starter... You have to rub that little stick inside the big stick to start the fire




Cave drawings... We only used crayons






A Maori wood carving chisel ...



Sandstone to Make a rock Flat, You put water on the sandstone... 
An Axe to hollow a tree 



Have you ever been to the museum???
