We had a great time with Room 6 children visiting the Westport Domain and the Buller Bridge. We learnt about a special place in our town, and explored the bush tracks. We also explored the Buller River area, and walked over the Buller Bridge.

Erin and Manaia found some old Cicada skins.

We saw some very tall trees.

We walked over the Buller Bridge.

We had lunch in the picnic area at the Domain.
