What I learnt from my trip to Ferrymead

 I learnt:


  • Children should be seen not heared
  • If you were sick you couldn't go to New Zealand because they didn't want anyone else getting sick
  • Ladies go first before gentleman
  • you had to take care of your shoes because they were expensive and handmade 
  • you used a two man cross cut to saw wood
  • there were colonists and steerage colonists paid for there trip to NZ and steerage had it paid for them
  • people made candles out if animal fat and wax
  • boys wore knickerbockers and caps 
  • girls had to wear white aprons, dresses and bonnets
  • they lived in v huts
  • the men had to clean the deck
