Ashburton Museum Trip

On Thursday the 16th of June, Room 2 went on a trip to the Ashburton Museum. We learnt about lots of new things like how the Canterbury Plains were formed, all about mountains, rivers, glaciers and lakes and we also learnt about different types of rocks. We were lucky enough to get to learn about and feel some extremely rare and precious rocks. We also viewed art in the art gallery and looked at a lot of different things from a long time ago. Here are some photos of us at the Museum:

This is us viewing art that is made from recycled materials.


We pretended to be mountains, lakes, rivers, and glaciers to understand the process of the flat land that we live on being formed.



This is us jumping and pretending to be hot rocks, exploding out of a volcano!


Now we are compressed, flat rocks under the sea.


This was an awesome, interactive display which showed the process of irrigation.


This is us learning about different types of rocks.
