End of year school trip

Yip -pee Room 5 is going on a school trip!
On the 9th of December (Wednesday) Room 5 is going on a class trip to Rumpus Room and Brooklands Zoo.
We will be leaving school at 10am and travelling to Brooklands Zoo.  We will have a fun play there and eat our packed morning tea. We will leave Brooklands Zoo just after 11.30 and head over to Rumpus Room.  We are booked in at the Rumpus Room from 12-2pm and a simple lunch will be provided.  
We do need transport for this trip so please indicate below if you are able to help out.  If you are unable to assist with transport could you please leave your child’s booster seat in room 5 on the morning of our trip. Please be aware you can only transport  children if your vehicle has a current warrant of fitness, registration and you hold a full license.
If it is wet we will have a fun morning in the hall playing games and we will leave school at 11.45.  Parents helping with transport can ring the school to check if we are going to Brooklands Zoo dependent on weather.
Your child will need a hat, morning tea, a water bottle, sunblock and good walking shoes.

A visit to Kindy to see how they reduce rubbish.

On Thursday we popped over to Kindy to see what 'systems' they use to reduce rubbish.
They have so much going on!






They use a compost bin to break down all the leaves that fall off the trees.





They have a lasagne garden.... that breaks down all the cardboard that would normally fill our landfill!




But BEST of all they have 3 worm farms!

These worm farms are filled with Tiger Worms and they eat up all the food scraps!


The worm 'cast' (poos) is great for fertilising the garden and the Kindy even sell the worm wees too!


Can you find the tiger worms?

This is a new one ready to be set up.


And this is one some of our kids have helped to set up


But it wasn't all hard work and learning.... we managed to have a play too.
Thanks Kahikatea Kindergarten for having us to visit!
