Week 3 Trip

We had a great time at Percy's Scenic Reserve on Tuesday. We looked at the way that the Percys and then the Hutt City Council have transformed the area to make it better for people to use. We saw man-made features such as the beautiful carved silver ferns on the fence and built-in stone benches and wall. We noticed that different pathway edging has been used throughout the reserve. We also saw the natural features such as the lovely waterfall and the surrounding bush. There was a great weta cave that had been a natural feature but had been made a little bigger so people could fit in to it. We all filed down into the cave and then someone turned on their phone light and we saw moving wetas all around us.  There were a lot of screams as we ran from the cave!

Thanks to all of our parent helpers.
