Trees For Survival



On Friday the 15th of June, all the students from Room 24 and Room 26 from 2011 went to Trees for Survival planting day. As we arrived, everyone started to smell cow poo, not surprisingly, we were planting on a farm, a muddy farm! We had to plant 1000 plants in one day. We planted in the field, and on the wet land, which was the really muddy part, and a boy called Nathan that was planting in the wet land, lost his gumboots in the muddy mud! We had the job of either digging or planting, as we were planting it felt like instead of the amount of plants decreasing it was increasing! After a nice long day of planting, it was finally time to have lunch! On the menu was hot dogs and burgers, as well as toasted marshmallows and jelly babies! ‘Back on the bus everyone!’ Mrs Rhodes yelled. Finally, we arrived at school with a story to share.
