On Tuesday, the 19th of February, our First Nations students went on an excursion to Tiagarra, Devonport.

To start the day, we had a 2 and a half hour bus trip, and the weather was amazing. When we first got there, we had our fruit break and recess. We then went into the Museum and learned about what life was like for our First Nations People a long time ago. The women would go under water and fish with their hands, and after a while, they could hold their breath underwater for up to 7 minutes!! There were a lot of different caves that people would sleep in, and they were giant!

We went on a walk for 30 minutes and we tried different food from in the bush. Some people tried sugar ants, and said it was very sweet. Next we tried some sort of grass, bent it in half and drank the juice in it, it was very sour. We tried some sort of leaf, which was very salty. We also tried some sort of berry, and it tasted very bland.

At the conclusion of our walk, we went back to the main building at Tiagarra. We had a very special lunch that was provided for us. Thank you to Mrs Crosswell for driving.
