Identifying Trees around school

This afternoon a group of 'Green Thumbs' (Our Envirogroup) were out and about identifying native and exotic trees around our school. We have been really lucky to have the help of Finn Michalak. Finn is a Collection Curator at Otari Native Botanic Garden. He helped us make labels for our trees and we found out what some native plants had uses for. 
Finn also gave us some native plants for our school. We'll finish our Tree labels in the next few days.





Thanks for coming out Finn- we had a terrific time!
