Propagation Shed Project Grows

Students at Wakefield School in Tasman had the idea to make a propagation shed for growing the trees needed for their bird cafe. They want to encourage the native birds to feed on the trees and for lizards to come to the school and feel safe in this natural environment.

Motupipi River Catchment Project is a Golden Opportunity for local High School students.

The Motupipi catchment drains an area of approximately 2855 hectares in the lower Takaka Valley of Golden Bay. A whole catchment and community initiative is being implemented to remove weeds (in particular crack willow), fence off the waterways and plant edges. Golden Bay High School students have got stuck in, boots and all, in this collaborative project that aims to address water quality issues.

Me in My Environment activities help build awareness and sensitivity to nature.
