Trip to Arataki

On the 11th of May, Glenbrae School Seniors went to Arataki Forest. It was exiting because it was going to be our first time going to the Arataki Forest. It was a 1 hour ride and people we feeling tired when we arrived. When we arrived we went in the Forest and it was interesting because we stopped in different trees. When we entered we needed to spray our shoes because there are diseases that can kill the plants and the trees. While we were walking we stopped by the beautiful view of the forest. We saw a lot of the Nikau Palm and I saw a Northern Rata. Then, we went down the stairs and saw an Enormous Kauri Tree. Then we went inside the visitor room and watched a video about Arataki Forest and the volume was a bit too loud for my ears but at the same time I still enjoyed watching the video.

Then Finally, we packed all our bags and headed back to School and it fun and exciting. The reason I enjoyed the trip was because I learnt a lot about the Native Bush and also the long ride.
