Arbor Day

What is Arbor Day? Arbor Day is a holiday that is celebrated on the 5 of June, certain people and groups are encouraged to plant trees. Today, many countries observe such a holiday, usually in the spring.

Why is this important for Nz's environments?  
To celebrate our natural beauty by educating our communities, planting a passion for future protection and preservation of our wondrous heritage trees.

What are some ways we see HHS helping with the environment?
  • Planting trees (all around the school)
  • Picking up rubbish (inside & out of school)
  • Making compost
  • Making garden beds
  • Having a big tree garden at the back of the field
Yesterday Tr & Ts went to the back of the field and planted or cleaned the trees. Lily and I had planted a flax tree, we called her Ataahua because she is going to grow into a beautiful flax tree. I can't wait till I can see her grow and use her to flax bags or little plants.

Here a photo from yesterday of me and 7 other people with trees to plant:
