Planting Natives

 It's tree planting season again! 🍃

The students are getting ready for our BIG planting day coming up 

in a few weeks time by planting in our school native garden. 


We were lucky to receive some FREE native trees to plant: 

- Ake Ake

- Titoki

- Coprosma 

- Pittosporum

With thanks for their wonderful support by donating these trees:

* Paper 4 Trees

* BlueSky Community Trust 

* Te Whangai Trust 









PLANTING UPDATE: 

While we were there we also checked on the native trees we had previously planted. This includes: 

- flax 

- rewarewa

- lancewood

The students were fascinated by the young 'fierce' lancewood trees! 

The young natives are making great progress;  the area is fast becoming a native forest!
