Enviro Successes

 Our school enviro programme received a number of awards and accolades at the Howick Local Board enviro meeting this week. 


We were very pleased to place 2nd school overall in the moth pod competition for the East Auckland area collecting a record 21 967 pods and roots.  




We were awarded a certificate for our work on waste reduction. For the 5th year running we have successfully reduced our school landfill waste. 

We have also received a certificate of recognition for beginning our journey calculating and reducing our school carbon footprint.
