Helping to choose fruit trees and thinking about the cost


 * Progress to date( August** 2012)- The wooden enclosure has been built. Thanks to Ben Dykman and his two friends. This was done free of cost. The soil was dug, worm casts and mulch was added. This was completed with the help from parents and students in Room 10. The next step is to add some top soil and start planting vegetables in rows. We work with Room9 on Fridays.

=**__Room 10 - 2017__**= On March 7th 2017, the whole Karaka team went to Onehunga Bay to look at the beach and the environment. We teamed up with the 'Love Your Coast team' to collect rubbish. We enjoyed looking at the crabs and birds, as well as walking along the coastline and the wonderful scavenger hunt. Mrs Downey has uploaded some pictures below to show what we did.
