Beach Clean Up Tuesday the 25th of February Beach Clean Up was fun and hot. We helped the environment. We all got wet along the way walking through cold water but it was refreshing. We picked up lots of rubbish. We worked as a team.  After the beach clean up we walked to Corbett Park and had a sausage and played games.

Last week we were lucky enough to be one of the first classes to go walking in Pukeiti on a new track that isn't even on the map yet. They are turning the old train track into a bike track. It was a long walk with lots of up and downs. We had to cross rivers and climb over branches. We did it though! When we returned to Pukeiti we were lucky enough to see a rare gecko.  It was a busy day but a great adventure too.

First a bit of practise... Then a bit of fun...

Looks like it is going to be a fun year!
