G’day folks and welcome to this coverage of the year 5 production! The readers are hushed and exited full of anticipation!

This term we all acted in H.O.T.B.O.T.W (Hanging onto the bottom of the world). We all got scripts and characters to play. I was the Prospector who finds gold. He represents Edward Hargreaves who first discovered gold. 

H.O.T.B.O.T.W is about Australia becoming a nation and how it happened an example in our play is that W.A was late for the wedding (federation) and in real life W.A federated last because they wanted to keep their land for themselves.

We had a lot of props. There was gold, guns made of toilet rolls, a Chinese dragon, cricket gear, microphones, a walkie-talkie, a flag, a tricycle, an inflatable crown, miners rights on string, tea trolleys, tea cups, a piece of paper, sandwiches, sunglasses, hats, drinks, camp chairs, apples, a crate, a box, binoculars, fake beards, fake sideburns, signposts, brooms, cups, sand, a commentary box, headpieces, veils, flowers, aprons and a lot more.

Overall this was a great, fun experience and I would say it was a really cool and funny play.

Would you do a production?
