Room Seventeen's Action Plan for 2010
//This year Room 17 will be continuing the work done in 2009 of monitoring the school's water usage. We will be doing comparisons with the previous 2 years to see if there is a need to// //educate the school about turning taps off etc. at some stage this year we will also try to do a presentation for the BOT off our 2009 results to try and get sensor taps installed in the toilets. This will make it easier for the Junior School children especially. This is a work in progress.//


 * Our Gardening Area**

This is what our garden used to look like.

//Our garden outside the Senior block is also in dire need of a makeover. Of the plants we had last year only 4 lavendar and 1 camelia. A suggestion has been made to introduce Yucca plants to help stop children walking through the garden on there way back to class. We will discuss this in class and make a decision.//

//At a recent class meeting we decided to add Yucca plants to our garden and we planted them this morning 6/5/2010. Our Yuccas do not look like much as they are poles from plants that have been 'recycled' from tips that someone put outside their house, 'free to a new home'.Our last Camelia has died as well.//

These pictures show Room 17's enviro reps discussing where to put our Yuccas, digging the holes and releasing the roots for the plants.



These pictures show the planting of the 3 Yuccas and watering which was very important as the soil was very dry. Well done girls.
