Our trees

Trees supply oxygen to help us breathe. They provide  home for wildlife and shelter for everything. Trees help make our world more beautiful and we are lucky to have some amazing trees at Pt England school.

From faraway we can see the macrocarpa.Its trunk looks so strong and the branch is big.Trees drink water  because when they drink it it makes it go up in to the sky.

Close up it looks like the trees are touching the sky. Also it's leaves are soft and looks giant. The bark feels hard and looks tall as the trees try to catch the sun.

Old Mother Hubbard

Morning walk.

This morning we went for a walk.We were walking on the grass which was wet and frosty.The grass looked white and frozen.

When we were walking we saw spider webs glisening in the morning sun.After we were looking at the spider webs we went down to the last tree and there were big droplets of water.Also when when we went to the last tree we saw the sun shining on the spider webs and it was beautiful.

Also when we finish  looking at the spider webs we saw a Kereru in the big trees.When we were walking we saw a horse raning across the grass.Also when we looked at the beach it was fog and we saw a magpie which was sitting on a tree with a Kereru.
