Coal turns to diamonds if it is compressed over millions of years!
I liked it when we went underground in our groups.
about how dark it used to be with out any lights.
I really enjoyed looking at the horses and being underground.
I enjoyed going underground where it was about 145m underground?!
The thing that i enjoyed most was getting there and the underground tour!
i loved going down the mine and i learnt that little children suffered the dark for hours until he or she was needed
I learnt that the miners used to take pit ponies down the mines. I also learnt that you can carve things out of ‘parrot coal’, so-called because of the chattering sound it makes when it is burnt.
i enjoyed everything about it they shore scared me a lot and the way everything was old and looks nearly destroyed it was fun going down the lift with hard helmets and lights it reminded me of high adventure all i can say really is i enjoyed everything.
It was loads of fun!
i learnt that a guy likes to hide rats
I really enjoyed our trip to the museum,i especially liked going underground.
I enjoyed the underground tour and I learnt that miners use to suck coal to get rid of indigestion.
I enjoyed it, despite banging my head on a steel gurder and a low ceiling,it did bring a lot of pain but I was wearing a hardhat.
it would have hurt more if I didn’t wear the hardhat.
It was awesome in the mine, my group was with TAZ he was so cool. The horses were just amazing but the ponies are older than the horse which really me.
really surprised me
I learnt that they used men children and women in the mines but then an accident occurred and now they only use men and horses.
I especially loved going in the under ground mine plus the lift you had to go down.
it was fun 🙂
I really enjoyed going down into the mine and doing lots of fun activities inside there.
I learnt that the coal miners had to suck coal to prevent their bodies from getting a bad disease. Also I learnt a lot about the mine itself.
