Pernel Trip

Last week Team Rua was part of the Junior Team that visited Pernel Orchard.  We began our day with making apple crumble.  While the crumble was cooking we went on the bus to Pernel Orchard.  We saw lots of different fruit trees and fruit, to pick a sweet, juicy apple from the tree and to pet the animals.  The trip around the orchard showed  us the fruit being picked, binned and taken to the pack house to be sorted and packed and stored in the chiller.  We even meet some people from Germany and France!

After lunch we enjoyed our apple crumble with ice cream!  We had such a super day!

Nga mihi nui to all the parents and grandparents that came along and helped.
