Arataki education center

On the 6th of September, all the year 5s went to Aritaki education center. We traveled there by bus, it was getting too long for me a started feeling car sick. We finally arrived there, when we all got out of the bus we started eating our snack. Once we had finished our yummy snack we went into the classroom. When we were in the classroom we learnt about how the different native plants and animals that were extinct or endangered. We also what different animals that don't belong in New Zealand. Room 15 went down to the place where they help grow the trees. We were meant to bring a yoghurt cup to the trip because we were bringing the plants back to school. Some people brought a container. This is why we needed to bring a yoghurt cup, it was because the parents were meant to poke a hole in it with a nail. Once we had finished planting our plants in the yoghurt cup we went back up the hill back to the porch of the class. We were enjoying our lunch and chatting away. After we ate our lunch room 15 went on a nature walk. We had some stops while we were walking. We had a stop and we had to sit down and listen to what was around us, then we had to write down what we heard on a piece of paper. We had to go find these things that helps you know what pests are in the area. We also had to identify what animal or insect the footprint is. After we found all of them we looked at the traps that kill the pests. It was sad to know how the pests are getting killed I don't think it's their fault that they are killing our native birds and plants. Sadly it was time to go back to school, I had soo much fun being there I hope we can go there again
