Bridle Path and Ferrymead

On Friday at 9:00 a.m 16th of March half of my homebase and I stayed at school, while the other half went to Ferrymead and learnt about the 1860s and what they wore and what they did back then. While waiting we finished some work the we needed to finish until we had to go to Bridle Path. As soon as it hit 10:25 we grabbed our bags and lined up outside on the netball court and hopped on the bus. It was a short ten to fifteen minute drive to the Gondola and Bridle Path.

When the bus arrived at our destination, the Bridal Path, we walked off sat down on the concrete and started eating our morning tea. When the teachers said to get into our groups with our adult, we stopped eating, got into our groups walked around the corner and started walking up the Bridle Path. It was fun at the start when we walked up. But then when we got up more steeper hills it got worse, but eventually we found a chair that we could sit down on. So I took a seat and sat there for a few minutes.

When I was finished we continued walking up Bridal Path about ten or so minutes later we were up the path on on a road. My group and I were supposed to walk up a path but we missed it and kept walking around the corner of the road up the top if you look over you could see the whole city, but you didn't want to get to close too the edge or else obviously you would fall. Once you walked up around the corner you had to walk up a small hill and through the door, walk up a little bit of stairs and you were inside. As soon as my group got up we walked through another and to the Time Tunnel, once you had finished on the Time Tunnel your group walked over to the gondola hopped in and it would started to move down.

It was really high up but the view was great, once me and my group reached the bottom we waited for the teacher to come in the van and take us to Ferry mead, at Ferry mead we sat down on the grass and started eating our lunch with everybody. Once we were finished eating our lunch me and some of my friends started playing tag. As soon as everybody had finished eating their lunch we walked down a driveway until we reached this old fire station we lined up into a boys line and a girls line. We started walking to this building/hall walked in sat down on the chairs put the 1950s school uniforms on over the top of our own ones played some games and also got to bake some scones and eat them.
