Trip To Palmers Rd ( Aniora)

Trip To Palmers Road

Come one get ready to walk down to the gate and wait for the bus to pick us up.

Today B11 and B10 are going to Palmers Road to plant some beautiful trees.We first got our name tags, said the roll and got our water bottles just in case we got thirsty.We met B10 downstairs and they were all ready to go.When we walked to the gate we got straight onto the bus because it was already there waiting for us.We went around the roundabout and over a few bumps.

When we arrived to Palmers Rd we had to line up next to B10.Then three Auckland Councils came and introduced themselves to both of the classes.Their names were Paul, Sarah and Kara.They will be teaching us how to plant at tree properly.The first step is to get yourself a spade and dig a hole in the ground. Make sure it's not to deep or not to shallow. Also make sure you don't dig your hole next to a tree root. Step two, place your plant into your hole and press the dirt that you dug out, push that on top of your plant and make sure it's really in there and cannot get out or wiggle.

So B10 dug on the far side while we dug on the other side.We also had partners. I paired up with Jorjah.The plants were already where you have to dig so we got our spades and started digging .We also planted in another area where you can see the beach. It was a beautiful view.

Maybe after like an hour we had to come back together and put everything away because it was time to go back to school. So we washed our hands from a big container filled with water.

When we were all cleaned up we walked in two lines and walked back to school.

We walked through the tunnels and across the roads.When we arrived back to school, we walked back to class to write our recount. I enjoyed planting trees, it was fun.
