We walked down a gravel path into a small room it had cans and bottles stacked to the ceiling. Then we went around the corner. there was another room with lots and lots of recycled stuff. there were even been bags full of plastic bottles.
we were split into groups and we were of.
FOOD
we went into a room full of food bread eggs lettuce and donuts and other goodies. They said that the supermarket was throwing all the stuff away! They also said that they were giving it to people in need. "My Mum worked here a wile ago!" I said. That's cool some people said. Then it was time to go we wondered what other activities there were.
THE GARDEN
The other group met us and we were of. They led us outside
into the garden she walked us down the path and told us the names of the plants. She explained how they grew and how to keep them healthy
Finally she said that we could go and taste all the plants. I found a plant that I liked gathered some leefs up and walked around eating them. There were a few sculptures in the garden. All of them had plants growing all over them. it was great fun. then again someone announced that we were leaving to have morning.
We got our lunch boxes and headed out to the garden to eat.
Me Harry s and Harry m and Stavers sat down on a bench seat. we talked about motorbikes mountain biking and fishing. I finished my
lunch and had a walk around tasting more plants.
COMPOST
We got called inside to discuss what other activities we were going
to do. We went of to the compost bin and and sat down.The specialist
came and and told us about all the layers there was a green layers and a brown layers. Here is a list of stuff that you can yous to make your own. Grass, leef , pee straw, weeds and deed plants. Layer it like lasagna a green layer than a brown layer. ceep doing this till the compost bin is full.
WORM FARM
We went to the bee crossing to wait for the other group to finish their task. The group eventually finished and put there gloves away
and lined up to move. we went and got gloves thinking we were going to yous them. She led us over to the worm farm.it looked empty than she lifted the top layer and it was worms paradise. There were worms everywhere. She gave us a hand full of dirt. There was at least two worms in each handfull we played with them and named them. It was really fun.
LEAVING
we went into the room were we got sorted and talked about what we had been doing. Than it was time to leave we said good by and thanks for having us. we lined up on the gravel path to wait for the bus. It came grunting along. We piled on and it left.
YOU SHOULD GO TO!
THE END
Archie, I think you described each learning station well. It was neat to read that your Mum used to work in the food area at the Tairawhiti Environment Centre. Next time before you publish be sure to re-read and check for punctuation, capitals and spelling. Keep shining!
