Kaitiakitanga Adventure!

In class a guy called Chris Judd and he said our subject was about pests and predators and a little bit about nature. He showed us some traps and explained about them.

The bus arrived and everyone got in a line, everyone started walking towards the gate and entered the bus. Everyone was talking until we arrived at Cornwall Park.

My friends and I looked at the amazing view. We saw sheeps everywhere and their poop smells horrible. When we arrived at our destination we split into two groups and had supervisors named Lisa and Charlie.

We explored and talked about trees and pests. There was a little box called the weta/cricket hotel. We saw poisonous traps because they are used for killing or trapping pests or predators. We switched groups but instead my group went with an Auckland Council member, Chris Judd.

Chris and our group went for a walk and explained deeper into trees and traps. It was fun because he would tell us where the traps were and we had to spot them. We spotted this bird and it had a pukeko-like head and a chicken body and it moved like a chicken.

Chris gave us binoculars to have a better look at trees. When the other group arrived we laid the mat and took out our lunches and had a lovely picnic. We played games such as snakes and ladders. The bus picked us up and went to school with a smile on our faces.

Chris Judd Came on the bus with us and gave us this thing called a tracking tunnel. He gave us a tracking card which had ink in the middle and he said it was best recommended to put peanut butter in the middle of the tracking card.
