Greenfingers Gang in the Garden

 






The Greenfingers Gang gives our younger tamariki a chance to show environmental leadership in our gardens.  This week, after they tipped the hot compost, they checked the tracker tunnel out out by the Eco Group. We were so excited to discover the peanut butter was gone and there were lots of prints.



When we went back to The Green Room we researched what had left the prints here: https://www.doc.govt.nz/Documents/our-work/predator-free-2050/a-short-guide-to-identifying-footprints-on-tracking-tunnel-papers.pdf 

We decided they were left by a hedgehog.  These are pests as they eat native insects like weta, but we don't really want to trap them.

Next week we'll tip the compost as usual and put worm tea on the cabbages.
