Happy Holidays everyone!

 A huge congratulations to all the year six students as they complete their final year and set off for new adventures in 2022.

I will be particularly sad to farewell my amazing Year 6 ENVIRO KAITIAKI, you guys were just phenomenal! 2021 was a tricky year but we still accomplished a lot! 

* Helping to establish our new TRAFFIC LIGHT bins school-wide, 

* Stepping up to help with waste reduction at every event and opportunity, 

* Confidently presenting our waste minimisation progress at a cluster event, staff meeting and assemblies

* Collecting moth plant pods (and coming 3rd!) 

* Brainstorming wonderful ideas to help us become more sustainable ideas going forward. These ideas will most definitely be useful next year!  

A special CONGRATULATIONS to Jackson Barker who won the Enviro & Sustainability award for 2021. You are a fantastic ambassador for the environment and I can't wait to see what you go on to achieve. 

   


ALSO congratulations to Kaycey for collecting 200 points by completing 4 Enviro distance learning tasks. 

Here are some ideas for a 'Christmas with LESS TO LANDFILL...


Make your own tree or decorations


Make gifts for friends (Cookies in a jar mix) 

Reuse old cans for decorations



SAVE your cards and wrapping paper for crafts in 2022!
