The History of our Community - 1840 - 1880

Room 16 has been given the challenge to research what was happening in Mt Roskill (Auckland) between 1840 and 1880.

This was an important time in New Zealand - the Treaty of Waitangi was signed, William Hobson chose Auckland as the site for the new capital, and thousands of immigrants were arriving each year to start up a new life.



Wharfside
By the 1870s, immigrants stepped ashore on the substantial wharves of well-developed ports. The Lady Jocelyn, seen here berthed at a wharf, made several voyages between Britain and New Zealand.

Wave Pool

In the holiday I went to the wave pools, I went with my friends. We went to the slide and I went backwards and I hit my head on the wall. We went to the waves. Then we went home.

The Movies

Hello everybody, I’m Arian, and I’m going to tell you about my school holiday. On Wednesday, on a normal morning, (at least I thought so) my mum told me some unexpected news. WE WERE GOING TO THE MOVIES!!! “Oh yeah! Uh huh!” I shouted. After 15 minutes we were in our seats, waiting for the movie to begin. Oh, the suspense was killing me! I thought. After 2 minutes the movie had begun!!! 2 hours later the movie finished. (By the way, I was watching Horton hears a who) when we got back home, I felt that the movie I watched would stick in my mind forever.

Chipmunks

In the holidays I went to Chipmunks with Oscar. I played with my friends Jia, Kinari and my other friend. I was a bit upset I didn’t bring any money to buy anything. After a while we went to the drinking fountain to get a drink. I never knew there was a drinking fountain there. Then we went back to Oscar.

Lynnmall

In the holidays I went shopping at Lynn mall. First I ate noodles at Hollywood café.
Then me and my sister looked around for my Mum. Then we went to foodtown.After that we went back home. When I was in the car my sister said when she was little she was colouring a picture of the zoo then she showed it to the teacher and she said the sky is not blue and when she was doing Diary Writing she said dairy wring ok let’s do dairy writing. Later I went home.

Holidays

I went to lots of parks and I played a lot. I went to the zoo and saw lots of animals. In the house I watched television. I went to the beach that was in the city.

McDonalds

In the holidays I went to McDonalds with all my family except for my dad. The first thing I did was run across the road to the playground. Then after 3 minutes, one of my mums friends came with their children.

Hamesh
