Reflections
This trip was my maiden trip to Sungei Buloh, and during the trip, I managed to get a breath of much-needed fresh air, and also at the same time, learn more about the beauty of nature through mangroves with my fellow classmates and friends. I saw the giant mudskipper, but before that, I had no idea what a regular mudskipper looked like! I spotted many other interesting animals like the tree climbing tree crab, the Siput Timba and the Thais Gradata.
This trip was fun, and was informative at the same time, as our guide, Mr Teo, was clear in his speech and was also funny, and therefore we could learn and absorb a lot of the information provided by him. The reserve was also very clean, and there was no litter on the ground and the landscape of the reserve was very beautifully designed in a way that we could enjoy its astounding beauty.
All in all, I enjoyed this trip tremendously and would certainly return again!

I think that the trip to Sungei Buloh was really interesting. I learnt a lot from the trip. I got to see, feel and soetimes even smell the different animals, plants and environments of the mangroves. I got to see many amazing animals I had never seen before. An example would be the tree-climbing crab and the other crabs I saw. Also, the large spider we saw was amazing.

Sungei Buloh was also filled with greenery and plants that were really beautiful. I learnt about how some plants were poisonous, and saw some beautiful flowers. The atmosphere there was wonderful, and I learnt a lot. The trip was well-planned and great, and ovrall, I give it the thmbs-up!

Through the sungei buloh trip i've learnt a lot. I saw many new mangrove plants and animals i've never seen before. It was really an eye opener. It was very interesting because I managed to see some creatures face to face, instead of just looking at their pictures on textbooks. The tour guide, Mr Teo, was very friendly, and was very knowledgeable as he was able to answer all our questions.
overall i enjoyed the trip and would like to go back to learn more
