Hello Beaconhouse Primary,
I continue to check your blog because I love the images you have posted and the information you have supplied to support your travels. I don't think I have ever seen anything so fabulous as the places you have taken Kanga and I have made sure I placed all your work on my blog to celebrate your great work.
I watch closely for anything new that might appear because I am so interested. I can not wait for my students to return from Summer Holidays to share all your outstanding work with them. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you and Thank you to all your families and friends that are taking Kanga to so many brilliant places. (see the comments box!)

Keep up the fantastic work.

King Regards

Handmade pottery in Pakistan

 

Colorful traditional pottery made by the people of Hyderabad.  Very Creative Art!  Its a very ancient style similar to Indus Civilization.  Guys! I am still on my way to explore more places in Pakistan. Meet you soon.  I will send you movie on voicethread also!

I am in the Rice Fields of Hyderabad, city of Pakistan

I am with pretty Zanirah.  She has taken me to a  village near Hyderabad, a city of Pakistan.  It is 150 km away from Karachi.  We went by road in her car.  On our way we saw rice and hay fields.  Pakistan's rice is one of the best rice in the world.  Pakistan export a lot of rice to U.K, America and Australia.  Its "Basmati rice" is one of its kind.  Eat it. 

BAGH-E-IBNE-QASIM (BIN QASIM PARK)

Bagh Ibne Qasim (meaning Garden of the son of Qasim) is located in Clifton, Karachi. More than 10 million people visited the park per year. Is also the largest family park in South Asia. This park was named as Bagh Ibne Qasim in memory of the 8th century Muslim conqueror Muhammad Bin Qasim. 

"You know there is a competition among students in the class, whoever take my to more places of Karach, he will get my friend Koala." I am really enjoying and exploring this new world!

 

FRERE HALL

Frere Hall was built in 18th century in honour of Sir Henry Bartle Edward Frere.

After nine years Frere Hall is now open for general public (May 2011). Beautiful lush green Surroundings of Frere Hall are known as Bagh e Jinnah / Jinnah Garden. The architecture of Frere Hall was built in the Gothic style as it was constructed during the British Raj over subcontinent in 18th century. The interior of Frere Hall is dominated by wood work: wooden floors, wooden stairs and even elegant wood work on roof. Frere Hall is also known as The great Sadequain art Gallery. I went there for first time and my mission is to take photographs of this amazing architecture. Luckily for me it was a weekday so there wasn't much visitors to spoil my shots and as this place is just resumed for general public at the start of May 2011 after nine years, still there are quite a few people aware about in the city.  Thankyou! Sheharyar for taking me there.  I have seen some amazing art work which I have never seen before.
