On Tuesday Kim, from the zoo, came to school and brought us a variety of native New Zealand trees for us to plant. We told her about the bird feeders we made and told her how they are attracting heaps of birds. We found out that if we planted native trees and flaxes that we will attract even more birds and butterflies to our playground.
We were lucky to have some Dads to dig the holes for us. We all helped to loosen the earth to 'waken the roots' to make the plant spread its roots and grow.
We all helped to plant the trees. Finally we watered them with some worm wee that Tara got us from our school worm farm. We can now watch them grow into strong trees!
