This was great. We looked at this as an inquiry for our enviro students. We had done some work planting in a local community area and we learnt about trees being a natural filter releasing and filtering water gathered from leaves, roots etc. This made a good connection about how rubbish and waste from non coastal areas can also make its ways into rivers and streams.

We used collecting rubbish at our school to start the introduction to keeping our water clean. We are going to do a beach clean up in week 8 which the children are very excited about.

This was the most amazing school kit. My students were engaged and loved taking part in the activities. We picked up so much rubbish and even went to home! Kids were sending in photos of themselves picking up rubbish at home. How amazing+

We only received Sea cleaner 22 kit in week 3 of term 4, and the weather was not great for us to organize a trip to the beach. We managed to learned about how to keep our local waterways clean.

The tamariki were passionate about cleaning up a local beach after watching some of the YouTube resources. They could link it back to how it affected them, and were fascinated by the sorting of rubbish we did. The materials provided were simple, but the learning resources were extensive and very helpful.

My Year 1 class have been working on this projects as part of their Deep Learning about Citizenship. We kicked off our learning by learning about storm drains. We took part in our local Wānaka Wao Summit. The children looked at storm drains around town, had a talk by local experts about where the storm water goes and made artwork with local artists making lake creature installation art with natural materials. We observed the eels in the lake. We used the posters from the kit to help us learn about how the rubbish that goes down the storm drains ends up in the sea and affects the sea creatures. We listened to many, many stories around this topic. We worked together to design and make posters to encourage others to look after the environment. Our lakeside clean up was meant to happen today, along with investigating inverterbrae and other creatures that live in Lake Wānaka and observing the grebes that live on the lake. Unfortunately, there was a serious incident at the lake yesterday and we had to postpone our visit until next week.
