Plastic in our compost

This week we looked through our compost before adding it to our garden.  We were horrified to find so much plastic in it.  Lots of the little plastic stickers on our apples and other fruit don't decompose.  Please take them off your fruit at home before bringing your fruit to school.

Lunchtime activities

Every Wednesday the KKKids run activities for students to participate in.  The activities range form maintenance activities such as weeding, and sustainability activities like making paper bricks to sell or catching flies for Tane,  to fun activities like building huts.  Students from New Entrance up come along and choose activities for the lunchtime.  Take a look at some of the fun things they do below.

Visit to Fern Glen

In September the KKKids walked to Fern Glen.  They had a tour around the gardens, partook in an enviro hunt and helped out with some weeding.  They even managed to move one of the seats a little further along the pathway after cleaning off their footwear to ensure they were taking every precaution against kauri dieback.
