On Friday the Year 6 students went to a farm in Waimauku to plant the native trees that we have been looking after at Enviro. These trees will help the environment by providing a habitat for insects and birds, and their roots will help to prevent soil from eroding into our waterways. Everyone worked extremely hard and was rewarded with some tasty kai provided by our host Rhonda.
