Last week, the Environmental Council went to the Auld property in Clevedon to plant trees for Trees for Survival. Our 22 students worked really well together to get the planting done, and we planted 790 native plants that included:
- 160 Mānuka
- 80 Māhoe
- 200 Ti Kōuka
- 180 Hebe
- 83 Harakeke
- 87 Pukio
We were very grateful for the opportunity to plant two beautiful Kahikatea side by side in memory of Sharon Maccanico and Max Furse-Kee. These trees will become forest giants and live for many hundreds of years above the Wairoa River.
