Year Threes Free the Trees

 Today Year Three focussed on the kereru. We learnt about these beautiful birds then took action by planting a kowhai tree in the Bird Corridor - kererus eat the leaves in winter. 

Then we freed other trees in our Bird Corridor from the kikuyu grass. Look how tall they've grown in two years! We wondered how big they'll be by the time we are Year Sixes.

Room 8 looked carefu. ly at the puriri tree. We saw the pink flowers that will turn into red berries for the kereru to eat. When the kereru flies off it will poop out seeds for new trees to grow 🤣💩🐦 🌳

Next time we're going to vote for NZ Bird of the Year
