Kawakawa Tree



All the classes in the Rimu Team have been given a 
Kawakawa tree to look after this week.

Mrs Haines took us on a Taonga hunt to find other Kawakawa trees at our school.

Here is Navala with the clue.

First, we went to visit Rachael - the source of all "knowledge".





Look what we found in the Ronga Garden






Where are we going to plant our Kawakawa trees?

Have you any suggestions?
