I was soon inside the bush. There was some birds singing and buzzing bees. It was like a band. It was quiet and dark in the bush.I heard calling and crunching footsteps. I smelled minty, fresh air and minty leaves and native trees.
Next, I saw a beautiful, hovering fantail. It's tail was like a fan. It was fluttering fast like an umbrella. The also saw silver fern fronds. I felt some scratchy tea tree branches and some shiny, smooth flax. It made me feel so comfortable. The gentle breeze surrounded me like a blanket.
The birds and bees were calling, the crunching of footsteps, the cicadas were singing, and all together it was like a symphony! OMG, it made me feel joyful and they were so beautiful!
BUT! Mrs Millett said, "Okay everybody- it's time to go back to class!"

As soon as we walked into the bush I heard a symphony of cicadas. I felt a fresh breeze against my face. The leaves were dancing like a thousand fairies. The tuis were singing. It like a big concert. I smelt the minty freshness all around me.I saw a slippery wet bridge ahead of me."Eeek!" the old bridge yelled at me.
The moss on the trees was dry and crumbly like an old apple skin. I felt calm and relaxed like a sleeping cheetah.
