'Tree Fellas' come to school


On Friday morning,  Room 1 and Room 2 went over to the senior playground to look at the two men from 'Tree Fellas' working on the willow trees. The men were cutting big branches off the trees to make them safe. They used chainsaws to help them cut off the branches and had a big chipper truck that they fed the smaller branches into.  

It was very noisy so we had to cover our ears!


Into the chipper goes the big branch!
Look at the branch getting smaller ...

... and smaller.


The men had special equipment to help them stay safe, including a hard hat and ear defenders. 
They used chainsaws and wore special protective clothing. 


One of the men used ropes to help him climb the tree so he was able to trim back the branches.
 He very kindly turned himself upside down which really impressed Room 1 and 2!
