What was the latitude and longitude of your clean up? (from Sea Cleaners poster) Our initial group clean up was across Ōhoka School and then the children completed their own cleanups independently.

What was your cleanup location type? Creek, Native Bush, Green Space, Reserve, School, River, Beach

Which of the following types did your class collect? Plastic Bag, Plastic Bottles, Plastic Cups, Food Wrappers, Straws, Household Waste, Tin Cans

What was the most interesting piece of rubbish found and why? Many of the children commented on finding bags of dog poop just left on the ground and not in the bin, they were quite confused about why someone would put the poop in a bag and not just take it to the bin.

“It was a great opportunity for our tamariki to finish up our inquiry focus (investigating our ocean habitats and sustainability) with a hands-on activity that made a real difference. First we completed a rubbish collection at kura (as almost all of our waterways head to the ocean and is how a fair amount of the rubbish ends up there.) and following that, the tamariki each took home a set of gloves and a bag and conducted their own waterway clean-ups in their own choice of area (river, beach, stream etc.)”

What was the most interesting piece of rubbish found and why? A TV

“This was a great practical kit. It gave us a chance to connect with our learning in Term 1 around SEA Week and a trip we did to the local aquarium as well as our local environment. Te Awakairangi flows right along our school and it was great to connect to the impact of the rubbish in our area on the river and that if it gets into the river it flows to the harbour and out into the Moana. The students felt super positive about how they helped stop the rubbish they collected from hurting any animals or making the water go bad.”
