brunner mine site

On Monday 25th March my class went to Brunner Mine site. First we meet up at school and then we got into the groups and then we went to the cars then we went to the Brunner Mine site. Then we met up with the Shantytown ladies, their names were Mrs Meers and Miss Barber. First Mrs Meers told us about the history of the mine, she told us where the coke ovens were. We split 

into groups and then we went off with our Shantytown lady. First I went for a guided tour with Mrs Meers, we went to the old coke ovens and then we went up to the memorial statue and then we went to the entrance to the mine.  It was covered up with a sign and next to it was the air way that pulled fresh air out of the mine then we went to the brick works then we had some morning tea. After morning tea we swapped around and then we split in 2 groups in the group we were already in my group went and role played. My group were role playing and we did the bit out of the book, my bit was the one were they were running over the bridge, then after that we had to find out about some questions. I forgot what they were after that we had to do a mime of bits that were in the book. 

Then we went to the Stillwater Cemetery. When we got there  we look at some pictures, after that we acted the procession which is a big funeral and after that we went back to school.
