Trip To The Daycare

Today ( August 14th 2019 ) we ( Me, Josh, Skyler, Sheila, Chloe, Hans and Lucy ) went to the elderly daycare to share our work with some of the people there. I was talking to some people, there names were Kelvin, Keith and John. We did have some things in common... We all liked Rugby League and we were all intrested in outdoor activities. I liked it there and would happily do it again.

The Book "Night Vision"

Lately we have been reading a novel called night vision so I had to do some activities based around it.

So today I am publishing two pieces of my work for you guys to see...

Hope you enjoy!

Charlesworth Reserve Trip

On the 3rd of July 2019 the people that do gardening CIP got to go on a trip to Charlesworth Reserve. Why we went there? So we could contribute to the plants to help climate change/our environment and because it would be a great oppourtunity for us... AND IT WAS! How did we get there? On a bus and two of the schools mini buses/vans.

So when we arrived we ate our morning tea and then we went to the place where we were meant to plant the plants. We got a brief description of how to plant them and that we had to find a buddy to work with, I went with my friend Evan and we got 8 plants done... the plants we planted were called Searush.

Charlesworth Reserve is near Ferrymead and it is on Charlesworth Road. The aim was to plant just under 200 plants but we got around 170-190 which is really good in the time we were there. Once we finished with all the plants we went to a place near the Ferrymead Countdown and started to pick up rubbish that people had left around. there were alot of empty glass bottles and just other random pieces of plastic.

Overall it was quite a fun time and we got alot done, we also found some crabs along the way (when I say some I mean alot!)

Planting some plants

We had an amazing time and if I had the chance I would gladly do it again!
