School trip

Hi my name is Olly and our class and room one went to the Enviro Centre.  We went there because a couple weeks earlier we went down to the Hamanatua Stream and we pulled most of the fennel out so we got a prize and that was going to the enviro senter we went there on a big  bus.  When we got there there was a big garden with a bee hive.  We walked in side and there were bean bags on the floor I thought that they would be comfy but when I sat on them I felt a bit weird and I knew what was in there and on the wall there was bottles stuffed in the bean bags.



On the way in there were neklisis on a table we had to pick one each those made up our group.  We were chosen to go into an old food room it's where old dairy food or supermarket food gets thrown out but the enviro center takes it to that room and then give it to people in need.





















Then there was a compost bin and I learnt that you need a green layer and a brown layer  for a good compost. Brown layers are news paper, cardboard and the green layers are grass clippings or hay.  

There was a worm farm that had three layers one was where all the worms and all the scraps were. Then the next layer down that's were all the worm pee dripped down into a 
bucket





 












































My conclusion is that the enviro senter was very cool and I highly recommend it.
