Stream Monitoring

On Wednesday 27 May the stream group monitored Poorman Stream. This is completed once a term and results are entered on the GLOBE website.

We found the stream to be in very good health from the tests we conducted, with some sensitive invertebrates, but there was not a lot of stream life found. The water temperature, conductivity, PH and clarity all came out excellent.

Mrs Gulbransen joined us and a parent. We welcome any interested people in the community to join us on these occassions.

Chippie Bag Collection

As part of  The Zero Waste Challenge children have been collecting the empty chip bags from children's lunch boxes. They then strung them together to see how long the collection would be.

This was shown at our whole school assembly on Friday.

The challenge is:

To reduce the number of chip bags at school next week.

At the end of this week they will string the bags together again and compare the two lengths.
