“A subgroup fo children carried out a beach cleanup as part of our inquiry: Cirizenship - Caring for our marine environment. The students went snorkeling on 2 different days in a Marine reserve and a non protected area. They contrasted what they saw in both places. A group used cleanup kit resources to clean up a third area of local (non protected) beach. They made some generalisations about the types of rubbish they found. They made a piece of art with selected pieces of rubbish and presented their work to the syndicate. For part of the Matariki celebrations, the senior syndicate also did a cleanup around school grounds (but needed extra gloves etc, about 180 students).”

Many of our students have started showing interest to find ways to reduce our garbage at school. We often get comments like "we can't have this go into the oceans".
