This week both of our Discovery groups helped volunteer with Coast care. In March we weeded the sand dunes & this week we went back to the same area at 192 Marine Parade & replanted 2 different types of plants to protect our beach. Sand dunes are important primarily due to their protective role for coastal areas & as habitats for unique plant & aniaml life. We worked hard & dug holes to a certain depth before planting the new plants.
I had so much fun visiting & exploring Ngaapeke Permaculture, I helped feed the ducks and chickens, sheep, pigs and patted the horses, we walked towards the river and seen all the native plants planted along the way, there was even BANANA trees!!
On Thursday my discovery group helped peel & prep the pumpkins for our hot lunch at our Disco. I had fun dancing with my friends & our hot lunch of pumpkin soup & fried bread was yummy!
My friends & I made the most of the sunshine & went fishing at Pilot Bay, we then had our lunch on the beach & stopped into Memorial park on our way back to Wilrose. I had such a fun day.
