Kea classes learn about natives

This term Kea rooms 11, 12 and 14 are learning about native birds and trees. 

They have learnt why they are so special and how to help these species. 

In the first lesson students loved going outside to try and spot some native birds. We saw seagulls, blackbird, sparrows and magpies. Sadly no native or endemic birds. 

In the 2nd lesson we looked at the four whanau trees of our school. The whanau houses are: Pohutakawa (red),  Puriri (blue),  Kowhai (yellow) and Totara (green).  

We looked carefully and drew or coloured what we could see.
