The Historical Panmure Cottage has to be Maintained!

The Panmure Cottage is a historical site in Panmure. It was relocated from McDonald’s in Panmure to near Saint Patrick’s School (Panmure). It was built with stones in the 19th Century. It is a two storey cottage with steep stairs on the inside. The cottage has six rooms all together.

There are four rooms downstairs and two rooms upstairs. There is a bedroom, a living room, a kitchen and a room filled with tools downstairs. There is a bedroom and an attic upstairs. All of the rooms are filled with antique things in the past. There is a bunch of lavenders in every room to make the room smell nice and welcoming.

There were photographs of children and the people who used to live in the cottage in the rooms. There is a chalkboard, two stones, saws and a cradle that used to be placed outside. There is an embroidery of the Panmure Cottage upstairs. There was also a dryer, a washing tool and old pictures. There are also two big bibles placed on a table in the cottage.

Now the cottage is open every second Sunday of each month at Panmure. It is used for people to learn about the history in Panmure. People can learn more of their identity and culture.

It is important that we maintain Panmure Cottage so people can learn about the history of Panmure in order to understand more about their identity and culture of where they live.

Educational Schools are Really Cool!

Schools like St Patrick’s School is a place where children from the age of 5 can have a education. Teachers teach the children in Rooms that have different year levels. There are six rooms at Saint Patrick's School like Room 2, Room 1, Room 4, Room 5, Room 6 and Room 8.

As the children come to school they hang their bags and prepare for a new day at school. The school bell rings at 8.45 am. When the bell goes, students go to class and then we have Karakia (prayer) because we are a Catholic School.

After prayer, we have roll call and then the day begins. Subjects are scheduled at different parts of the day. At 10.45 the bell rings and it is Morning Tea. Morning Tea ends at  11.10 and the children head back to class. At 12.45 another bell ring which means it is Lunch time. They eat their lunch and play until 13.25, the end of Lunch. They learn different new things every day. At 2.45 they pray and then they go and line up for hometime.

Schools are important for children so they can have a good education and find a good job when they will grow older. Without schools, we would not be able to learn the skills that we need to be successful.
