Kia ora koutou, during the week 7-11 September the Nation celebrated our care and protection for Papatuanuku/ Mother Earth by way of cleaning her up. This is the second year our school has been involved and thanks to our Environmental Sustainability Management teacher Richard Higgins, he slits our small town of Kawakawa up by Street and we (classroom teachers) choose which one we want to take our students to and pick up all the rubbish. Our 9R Social Studies class chose Whitemans Road & Leonard Street and last Friday off we went with our high visability jackets, rubber gloves, rubbish bags and a yo ho ho. I think the students just liked being outdoors and walking around town. Here is a picture of our group and efforts.
