||
 * == 21.5.12 == || == I did more contract == || == There are many types of Hulks. There are some others like powder Hulks and retrieving Hulks. powder Hulks stored gunpowder. and retrieving hulks trained sailors. == ||
 * == 22.5.12 == || == I finished my website == || == Some of the prisoners food was ox cheek, peas, bread and biscuit. The biscuits were often mouldy and green on both of its sides. The water was from dirty rivers. Sometimes the captain of the hulk let the convicts plant crops. == ||
 * == 23.5.12 == || == We read a book about convicts == || == They made up silly rules so people went to Australia because there were too many people in London. Also i learnt that kids started working at the age of six. == ||
 * == 31.5.12 == || == I started my new contract == || == I learnt that convicts arrived over 200 years ago because of their crimes. Also I learnt that there was a British govenor called Arthur Phillip. Some of the convicts jobs were: cooking, logging, farming and packing carts. == ||
 * == 1.6.12 == || == I almost finished my contract == || == Captain cook didnt actually discover Australia. people from other countries would go there to collect slugs. ( Dont ask me why!) But technically he was the first Englishman to discover it. == ||
 * == 2.6.12 == || == I finished my contract == || == We are very lucky to live now. In the time of the first fleet people slept on wooden boards called Palllets. and only the very rich people had small cottages while the poor lived in dirty slums and made theirselves drunk by drinking cheap alchohol so they would forget their troubles. == ||
 * == 18 .6.12 == || == I started my compulsary task == || == Robert forrester was someone who stole six guinneas and was sent to NSW. We also will have a debate on wether kids grew up to fast in the time of the first fleet. == ||
 * == 19.6.12 == || == We started to research our ships == || == I learnt about the H.M.S Alexander and that it was a convict ship and it was the biggest ship in the fleet. we also did our debate on "People grew up too fast in lizzies time" the "for" side won. It was very fun. == ||

If a perferred herb wasn't there there was usually a local substitute. My question is how did medicine develop over time, how aboriginal medicine compares to british medicine and do we have things that they used in our medicine today == ||
 * == 16.8.12 == || == Started my reasearch on my little questions == || == One of the ways of making Aboriginal medicine was called an infusion. They crushed the leaves of the selected tree and soaked them in water. The leaves were then dabbed onto the patient to fix some wounds and sunburns. == ||

Arthur Phillip once put out his hand to an aboriginie to shake his hand and the aboriginie thought he was trying to attack him so he speared him in the shoulder == ||
 * == 20.8.12 == || == Kept on reasearching my little questions == || == I learnt that we have lost records of aboriginal medicine because the british wiped out thousands of aboriginies so it is hard to find them and ask them now. == ||
