Nature Adventure

Instead of having our morning in the classroom, today we met at the Wombat Hill Botanical Gardens for a morning of nature adventuring with Bec, Patrick and Meg.

We started off by dispersing like seeds in the wind then writing about what we found once we'd landed.

Some of us were more creative with our writing implements.

We talked about the forest and all the different things we can do with wood.

We carved trees.

We jumped out of them.

We sat in their shade and ate our lunch.

Then we used them to try and light a fire.

Some of us even tried to eat them.

After a while we even started to look like them.

Our minds and our bodies were becoming one with our environment.

Until soon enough, the transformation was complete.
