Hi, welcome back to my blog!
On Thursday the 7th of February, MLH went down to Hamanatua Stream, it was great! We went down there to do lots of weeding and taking care of the native trees of New Zealand. We were put into groups of 3 or 4, I was in a group of 4, We weeded and took care of 11 trees! There was so much fennel, it smelled DREADFUL! But at the end there was nearly no fennel at all. (The images are at the bottom.) When we arrived I thought, "There are no weeds at all!" Which made me think that the teachers were exaggerating, but when I walked up the path man was I wrong! I worked on lots of different types of plants, who knew there could be so many native plants in one small area. We spent probably spent about 2 and a half if not 3 hours at the stream, and we cleared most of the weeds out.
Next time we go we will need to add some mulch. We worked hard today. Near the end of the time we spent at Hamanatua Stream, My friend Sennen and I where the watch keepers for the remainder of the time, so we picked up everyone's watches and took care of them. Nah! I am just messing with you, the watch keepers make sure everyone is working, and we got to say to people "GET BACK TO WORK!" In a way doing this job was kinda funny. I really loved going. So that's the end of my blog post, remember to have a look at the photo, Bye have a great day!
I am the person in holding the shovel!
