Conservation Week

Everyone has a role to play...

Enviro Kid Thinkers!

It's Conservation Week and today we had a challenge. Working in mixed groups we had to find the most words in a word using 'Conservation'. Summer, Susanna-Grace, Payton and Abby won with 37 words!

Silver Award Reflection Day


Wow! We are now a very proud Silver Enviroschool. It was great to have ex pupils Gracie and Josh join the Reflection Team on the day. Special thanks to our Enviroschool facilitator Rowena Brown for her work  and to the students who presented on the day.

Green Team Planting at Kitchener Park

The Green Team worked with Mr Scott and Jayden helping to plant native trees at the park. Jayden showed us how to plant them and Mr Scott talked to us about the importance of trees and about the history of the park. He is very excited about future plans for the park. It was lots of fun being community volunteers. Gecko Environmental very kindly gave us the use of one of their portaloos for the day.

Keep Feilding Beautiful Rubbish Monster Competition

On Enviro Action Day we were busy constructing taniwha paru- rubbish monsters from trash. What wonderfully imaginative creations from our classes. Just goes to show that trash can be reused to make amazing enviro artworks.
