The Origin Of WaterPrediction:

How water and lakes were created.

Summary:

Feelings: Because the animals did not believe the rat could do it by himself all the other animals felt stupid and silly because the didn't believe him.

Question:

How 1 little waterhole created all the lakes and the ocean.

Moral: Little things and people can make big achievements.

Once apon a time there lived a blue tongued lizard he was hiding a little waterhole from the other animals because he wanted the water to himself when the other animals found out that he was hiding it from them they all got mad and had a meeting they sent Gudjilla the Bandicoot to follow the blue tongued lizard but he saw Gudjilla in the corner of his eye they had another meeting and this time they sent Jiggirrjiggirr the Willy Wagtail and he the blue tongued lizard saw her tail in the corner of his eye then Gula the rat asked to follow him next and they all laughed at her so she went by her self and this time the blue tongued lizard didn't see her she found the water and scared the blue tongued lizard away and they all celebrated.

The 18th century in England was not very nice they did not have nice food only the rich people did.Children got made to steal food and things to survive. Children only was allowed to have 1 serve of food they also had to work to 10 or 20 hours a day.They had no heaters and lots of the children's parents were dieing because there was no medicine so lots and lots of the children got sent off to orphanages. It was terrible back in the 18th century!

18th Century England

The First Fleet

The First Fleet of 11 ships, each one no larger than a Manly ferry, left Portsmouth in 1787 with more than 1480 men, women and children onboard. Although most were British, there were also African, American and French convicts. After a voyage of three months the First Fleet arrived at Botany Bay on 24 January 1788. Here the Aboriginal people, who had lived in isolation for 40,000 years, met the British in an uneasy stand off at what is now known as Frenchmans Beach at La Perouse.

The First Fleet of 11 ships came in 1788 the size of the ships were no larger than Manly Ferry. When the first fleet arrived the aboriginals got mad because they were on their land and when they thought they got rid of them when they left it turned out they were going back to England to bring lots and lots of people to explore the country.

Hi I'm Sarah Parry. I am 61 years old I also have a son named Edward Parry he is 21 years old. We are convicts and on the 22/2/1786 I stole a silver watch a gold chain and a key. Edward stole a cord and a bag. We both got transported to Australia for 7 years.

Bound For Botany Bay

Who is singing this song? Why are they singing it? Why are they saying ‘farewell to Old England forever?’ Where were they going? Why?

The convicts are singing it. Because they are being sent to Botany Bay for a long time and they might of wanted to express their feelings because they might of been happy because they were away from England because it's horrible there.

Because some of the convicts might of done a worse crime and are going away forever and the other convicts who didn't do a bad enough crime couldn't get home anyway because there is no way.

The convicts were going to Botany Bay because they committed a crime.
