Room 5 Visit Poorman's Stream

On Friday 3 August in cold and showery conditions Room 5 brave the conditions and walked down to Poorman's Stream for a stream study. Mel from the Nelson City Council was there to tell us what to do and how to use the equipment. We were finding out how healthy the stream was and what we can do to ensure it stays healthy. We had to measure the water quality and flow. We had net to catch the small creatures that live in and on the water. We had a great time in spite of the weather and we caught lots of mayflies.
