Room 1 and 7 went to Pilots Beach to weed and plant for the Little Blue Penguins as part of the Kid's restore New Zealand programme. There were aroubd 150 plants and we planted the majority of them. We also planted and camouflaged some special penguin boxes that the penguins could live in. They looked for comfy, for a penguin of course! Sally Carson , who was in charge of the programme, said that we were the most efficient school that had planted at Pilots Beach so far. That night Sally and Olivier went back and saw a few penguins living in the new boxes, this was very cool. We look forward to returning over the years and watching the trees grow and knowing that we have played a part in restoring the penguin habitat.
