A visit to the Salt Marshes

Feb 21, 2020

By Marijke Wigley (age 10)

This week Bushwillow children have been learning about the salt marshes. Really? Yes because I saw them at the salt marshes and they were all writing stuff down, I am just not sure how they got there… Well they walked of course. So what is a salt marsh? Well ask your children if they go to Bushwillow but if they don’t I will tell you. A salt marsh is a place where the mud forms a higher platform where little sea succulents grow and help filter the water. So that was another awesome week at Bushwillow!
