On Tuesday at 10am, Room 6 went to the stone cottage and I was so excited to go with my friends to see something new. Well it is actually a very old house which is just in front of our school. The house was brown and is made of stone.
The people who showed us around were Patrick,Terry and Josephine who was an old lady who just sat in the living room! At first we went to the living room where there was cool old stuff like an old picture of Panmure where our school is and where the stone cottage was before it was moved. It was in Mt Wellington near McDonalds.
Next we went to the bedroom, where I saw a picture of Phoebe Dunn with her baby. Terry showed Room 6 around the kitchen, and I saw a doll sitting down in her highchair and another old picture of Panmure. Later on we went upstairs and some people hit their heads because the stairs were very small and low.
The next room was very interesting. It had an old perfume, corset and a man’s old boots and some old fashion outfits. They looked very pretty! Next we went to the kid’s bedroom. There were lots of dolls in the house and mannequins which scared me and Patrick showed us a map of New Zealand in the olden days. I thought it was a very interesting house to visit.
