We went to Brown's Farm at Nettlecombe to meet Andrew from the Woodland Trust. We were there to help to plant a new wood, Africa Wood, named after one of the ships in Nelson's Fleet at Trafalgar.

We started off with clean boots but didn't take long to collect some mud!

The field that will grow into a wood

On the way we looked at trees and other plants before we came to 'Africa Wood'

We all had a turn at planting a tree, mostly oak trees.

 

Then it was time to go back up the hill to the bus and to school.
