Timbernook

                                         Timbernook

Timbernook is a lovely place in Hastings. It is filled with nature, birds calling, animals and some great activities. Sheppard house were lucky enough to go on a trip each to Timbernook. Yesterday rm 11 went and we learnt heaps!

We had to do activities that not only included physical ability but mental ability. We scavenged around the grounds to find different resources to resemble a human body. We were split into three groups. Each group came up with a a team name. I was in the APPLE TREE SHOVELERS! As you see we had to let nature inspire us with the name. 

                                   

When we got free time there was lots to do. Some people went on a rope swing and landed into a brown like gunge ( I was sure that there was some sort of poo in there because all the boys smelt like poop. Or that could just be them?). 

Roasting marshmallows was fun. Once they were done you would pull of the outer layer of the marshmallow. In the middle would be heaven! Creamy, gooey, fluffy mellow. When everyone was done with smelling like poo we sat around a fire. Listening to scary stories eating plain flavored popcorn. It wasn't the best but it was better than maths!

     

I would recommend going to Timbernook if you want to learn about the outdoors or just want to get away from the city life. I would Recommend Timbernook!
