Hukerenui School wins $10,000 to plant a bee friendly boundary
From the top of the North to the bottom of the South, Kiwi kids from five schools around the country are nowable to reconnect with their natural environments after winning a $10,000 TREEmendous event.
Hukerenui School in Northland is one of these five schools. They want to transform their western boundary fence area by planting bee-friendly trees and plants and provide a habitat for the skink population to create an area that will not only be fun, but a student led educational learning space.
“We want our school to lead the future in incorporating outdoor learning into school life, which can be managed and taught by students, leading future students in their wake” says Jodie Baldwin, teacher at Hukerenui School.
The joint initiative between the Mazda Foundation and Project Crimson Trust helps to transform schools’ outdoor education spaces through creating fantastic open air learning zones full of native trees and shrubs.
The remaining finalists will receive $500 towards their projects.
