Charlesworth reserve

This week on Wednesday some year 7 & 8 went to Charlesworth reserve. We went there to plant a lot of native plants hoping to bring back NZ native birds.
Around 9.30 all the classes got together in J6 and walked to the bus but ten students from each class got to go in the van voluntarily .
Do you know how Charlesworth reserve got it's name? It got it's name from the firs person to step foot on the area. Captain William Charlesworth.
The bus had a bit of trouble getting into the car park so the bus driver tried to reverse it didn't go very well, A wooden pole got injured. It took a bit of time but we got out of there fine and took another way. Once we got to the others we had morning tea. Minuets later we were introduce to our instructor Andrew. He lead us to where we were going to plant the native plant rush.Image result for rush plantAltogether we plated a few hundred actually a lot more then that. After we had finished planting we when to pick up rubbish around mitre 10 ferrymead. There wasn't a lot because mitre 10 had pick some up before us.
