Green Day Term 1

This term for green day we pulled the weeds from along the fenceline and behind some of the classes. We also picked up any rubbish we found. It looks much tidier now!

Jack Flash

Today we watched a funny play of Jack Flash and the jumping beanstalk. Jack had the task of finding out who was dropping rubbish from out of the sky. You can guess who the culprit was.... it was the giant. We really enjoyed the jokes, funny parts, songs and the storyline.

Stormwater drains

On Tuesday we watched a show presented by the Auckland Council on protecting our stormwater drains.

We learnt the following things:

- always wash our cars on the lawns or at the car wash

- pick up litter from the kerb so that it doesn't go down the drain

- check for leaking taps and tell someone

- let the council know if the stormwater drain caps are coming off

- to never wash oil into the stormwater drains

and lastly rain should be the only thing going down a stormwater drain.
