Shantytown
On the 29th of October a class of students from Grey Main School Mamaku 1 went on a day trip to Shantytown. There were many extremely excited children getting ready and putting suncream on outside the old site.
When they had gotten inside they went to the old church until they were told “You are going to the old school to get changed”. All the children were waiting in line to get their clothes and get changed into old fashioned boys and girls clothes.
Once they came out the boys learnt it was polite that if you ever walked past a lady or a girl you tip your hat so throughout the rest of the day the boys were tipping their hats.
A day out at Shantytown offers children a look into the past so they can experience how it was like in the old days, it is highly recommendable and enjoyable.
