Arrowtown Goldmining Trip

Here we are off on another trip to Arrowtown to find out more about the gold mining days.  Oh we do love class trips. In Arrowtown we went on a Historic Walk along the main street. We had to match up pictures of the old buildings to another picture of what the goldminer would have bought there.  Then we had an exciting scavenger hunt in the museum.  The old school room was really funny.  Some of us did not pass the finger nail inspection!! After lunch we were down at the river washing aprons in the freezing cold water, making cream and gold panning.  Eleven of us found gold!!! Soon we will be experts on goldmining.  Just ask any one of us something.  Here are some photos of our happy day. Arrowtown Goldmining Trip on PhotoPeach
