Moth Pod Prize Giving: 2nd School

 This week we attended the enviro schools meeting where the moth pod results were finally announced! 

This competition is organised and supported every year by Howick Local Board. 

We are regular competitors; we have now entered the competition for 6 years running and continually placed in the top 5.  




We had a great team supporting us this year with 46 different families or community members collecting and bringing in pods for us.  

Aimee, Aurora, Emily, Charli, Charli's Mum and Mr Earl came along to this event. The girls have been our top collectors this year and been out on many after school and weekend missions collecting pods. 


We were excited when they started announcing the results and we found out we came...

 2nd SCHOOL! 

We received a certificate, some prize money and took our photos with the cute native soft toy creatures.
