Enviro Trip

“Yuck! What’s that smell?” It was the worm farm where you can see our local tiger worms. I felt like I was about to puke by that horrid smell.

When Eileen opened the worm pot I saw rubbish filling up the pot. This is a bad start of the week. It was the 14th of September and if I vomit on everyone that will be humiliating. “Tiger worms like the dark and needs moisture to live” Eileen said a bit louder than I expected. She dug up a pile of rubbish to show us some tiger worms. I saw one tiger worm crawling around the bad smelling pile of rubbish. She dug the rubbish back. “This is worm tea.” she exclaimed still speaking out loud “And yes this is worm pee” she told us. She gave the worm tea to Daniel and Monique to carry it to the Native Zone. “You have to put certain things inside like banana skin, kiwi fruit, pear, peaches but not citrus fruits or milk.” She exclaimed. Soon enough we went off.

As I approached I was amazed to see these artworks. We were in the Koru Garden. I saw some amazing artwork like lizards butterflies and birds displayed in this area. “These artworks are made because these locals cannot be seen in our school like these lizards.” she exclaimed. I saw an artwork in the middle of the area. It was a big koru. She vibrated the koru trying to feel it. “You have to touch or feel your artwork.” she told us. Now we walked to the native zone.

As I walked to the stepping stones I saw Maddy writing on one of the writing boards with a piece of chalk. I saw a few people looking at something behind a piece of artwork here at the Native Zone. I approached it and scanned everywhere trying to see what to look at. A lot of people left and there were only three of us. “Where is it?” I asked myself. “Over there!” Piumila cried getting our attention. Wow I can’t believe I’m seeing it for the first time in real life. A Koru right there beside the big brown log. “Wow!” I exclaimed excited.
