Springing into spring!

We have been writing senses poems about spring.

Spring
Smells like soft rose petals
Looks like a great forest
Sounds like baby birds chirping
Tastes like a crunchy apple
Feels like a lambs soft white coat.
by Maya

Spring
Feels like summer is coming
Tastes like nectar
Looks like blossoms
Sounds like birds
Smells like flowers.
By Caleb

Spring
Smells like flowers sprouting
Looks like sun as bright as fire
Sounds like a rolling tyre
Tastes like candy floss
Feels like summer's coming
by Elisha

Mask Making

Tree-planting at the Glen

Last term we went tree-planting at the new Glenduan reserve at the Glen. The Nelson City Council gardeners provided the plants and taught us how to plant them properly. Some of the things we planted were rushes, harakeke (flax), coprosma and kowhai. There were lots of fat worms in the soil so we think the plants will grow well.
