murraes post





Hi folks its Murrae,

this story starts with mum waking me up at 05:00 Monday and dad driving us to the east perth station. i was on the train for 6 hours listening to music and watching movies, kind of boring but ok. when we arrived at kalgoorlie it was boiling. at camp i had to make up my bed and then i played games.the two boys you see are james and harry my friends. for supper i had beef which was really hard to chew. i had to do a chore as a wash wiper. on tuesday i had breakfast and walked down hannan street, now patty hannan was the first australian to ever record finding gold. then we (meaning my school and i) went to kal museum. the pic of the huge rig thing was moved to the museum for show and i was up there. in the museum i saw all kinds of things like a old bank. for lunch we went to hannan park and i talked to cockatoo it can say scratch scratch and hello .after lunch we saw kcgm its the mining company and the super pit. We came back to camp, had Aboriginal studies and then had supper we had macaroni, then went wall climbing, i hate it. bed time. wednesday we had breaky and we played miner gambling as you can see we got fake money i lost it all. then we walked up mt charlotte and saw the super pit close up. we saw the goatcher curtain(painting) and down a mine shaft from a hotel. you see the miners stole gold using these tunnels on weekends. we had lunch at the mining hall of fame and guess what i got? gold! I had supper and quiz night. thursday,breakfast,prospecting got more gold,bbq.we had tour of coolgardie near kal. when we got back to camp we had supper and went swimming, had our skits(small play)then, lights out. friday had breakfast at 5.30 am and got the train back here. dad took me to pick up mum from work. i hope you enjoy my report for the blog. see ya.
