Kaikorai Valley Common Working Bee

Some of our Enviro children helped to plant trees, flaxes, cabbage trees, and toi toi around the stream at Kaikorai Valley Common.  We really enjoyed the gardens that were being created and the mature gardens as well.

Enviro Kids go to Mt Grand Water Treatment Station

Two of our Enviro-group children went on an Enviro Hui to Mt Grand Water Treatment Station and then to the Marae in Kaikorai Valley.  The theme of our Hui was Precious Water.  We followed the journey of cleaning Dunedin's water.  We saw what the water looked like as it arrived to the treatment plant and we saw the different stages of cleaning the water so that it would be clean to be sent through pipes to our taps in our houses.  

Coleslaw Burger Day

We celebrated our garden harvest by making a coleslaw burger. Yum!
Lots of parents helped to cook the burgers and Room 5 children made the coleslaw! We grated carrots and chopped cabbages to make a delicious coleslaw.
