T.K. the tidy kiwi

TK the Tidy Kiwi comes to our primary assemblies to celebrate classes who have been doing great eco-friendly things around our school. 

Hiringa's inquiry learning...

This term the Year 5 and 6s in Whanau Hiringa are learning about rubbish.  Our question is "Are we throwing away our future?"  We have researching things like pollution, rubbish and more.  Here are of the things they have though about...

• gyres
• rubbish islands
• recycling

and much more!

Each child in Hiringa is involved in a project that is either independent or in a group to help or experiment for the survival of the beautiful earth we live on now.  

 

Wonderful wonderful worms!

Some Eco Warriors interviewed Lyndsey, our fabulous worm caregiver about Balmoral's worm farms....

Kakapo market

Some classes from Whanau Whetu recently held a lunchtime market to raise money for the endangered kakapo, as part of their CIB learning.  

Two of our Eco Warriors interviewed some of the market organizers.
