Botany trip

A few days ago our class went for a little walk around Gifford for our Botany project which is all about plants, trees and wildlife growing things. :) While we were walking around we stopped a few times too look at trees and flowers. Also, a few of the pupils' parents came in and went for a walk with us. Mr Morgan knew so much about plants some of us were amazed.
When we went on our walk we learnt a lot about the wildlife. We got to draw the leaves, seeds and also we got to learn about the types of trees. Some of the trees were: silver birch, oak, beech, hawthorn, sycamore, pine, nettle and many more. We also found some tops of acorns which some wild animals had left behind.

Thoughts of the trip
Nevis: ‘I liked the trip and I learnt a lot from the trip.’
Rascal: ‘I enjoyed walking and fresh air but it was quite boring at times.'
Brownie: ‘It was good, fun and very interesting.’
Bizz: ‘I thought it was good and interesting.’
Skitt: ‘I thought it was fun and I learnt some stuff about flowers.’
