Plant Field Trip (Fran and Georgia)

Yesterday the middle school went on a field trip to Lincoln university and the people in our group were Henry, Elan, Regan, and William. Our group went to Plant And Food where  we met Neil, Charlotte, John and a French scientist. We learnt what a nanometer was and we saw some melted plastic get spun into nanometre widths.
After that we went for morning tea across the road from Lincoln high school and after we finished our morning tea we did a challenge where we had to fill out  a sheet with questions like (find the Maori names for three plants and find three plants that feed birds.) 
Next we went to see Trish at a field site. Trish showed us what good soil looks like and what disturbs the soil the most. When Trish had finished speaking about soil we got back on the bus and headed back to school. It was a great day for us.
