When we got there we watched a short video outlining the history of Wonnerup House and learnt about the Layman family who used to live there. After that we got organised into our groups with our fabulous parent helpers and set off to explore the grounds.
We saw the Main House, Stables, Blacksmith Shop, Dairy Kitchen, Old School and Teacher's House. Along the way we had questions to answer about each area, so we were kept very busy looking around to find the answers and also observing all of the interesting old things.
We had a lovely lunch on the beautiful grassed area and then we got to run around, play cricket, do hula hooping and skipping with Mrs Hughes and the Mums.
After that it was time to have a final look around before we headed back to school. We were so exhausted by the time we got back but we had a fantastic time with the other Year One class at Wonnerup House and learning more about school and places in the past. A huge thank you to Prue, Katinka, Kristie and Anita for their amazing help with our groups on the excursion. Come in and check out our awesome recounts that we did this week!
