These conifers have been
in the wood for 150 years. They are very tall and
soon they will fall down. By looking at the trunk
when it has been cut down you can see how old it
is by counting the rings. When the conifers
have fallen down there will be some more conifers
to replace them. When we were at Skelghyll Woods
we had 2 minutes of silence because it was the
11/11/99, and it was the rememberance day for the
people who died in the war. Then we put our head
against the tree and lay there for ten minutes
with out talking, but some people did talk!
We had a brillant time at Skelghyll Woods and we
learnt a lot about trees.
Laura and Matthew.
