We had a fantastic trip today, an awesome presentation by Maressa from Canterbury Museum about Riccarton Bush. We started at the school and walked or straggled our way along to Riccarton Bush. Once we got there were stopped to have some morning tea.
We learnt about the huge Kahikatea trees. What an amazing sight they were especially when you looked up at their height, as can be seen in the photo below.
Welcome to our new students in our class today, Sofiya, with the book on her lap and Jannah, her younger sister who is sitting next to her on the right.
Students are listening carefully (with eyes shut) to the sounds of the native birds in the trees.
Sounds like a great trip Poppy - I you and your classmates learnt a lot about the early settlers of Canterbury.
