Trees For Survival

Room 32 is running the Trees for Survival programme this year. We had our planting day at Mataia Farm in Kaipara. 

We were lucky enough to have mostly fine weather and not to get too wet (unless it was voluntarily). We planted 750 Harakeke (flax) and Manuka. The reason for planting these trees is to stop erosion of farm land and create healthier water ways and homes for our kiwi and other native insects and animals that live at Mataia farm. 

Rubbish Collection

The senior and junior Enviro Fronds action groups have been busy picking up rubbish around the school grounds and in the gully. We found far too much rubbish! We all need to protect our school environment by bringing litterless lunches to school, or putting any rubbish we do have into the correct room or taking it home - not leaving it on the ground! And if you do see some rubbish on the ground, please pick it up!!!
