106Marshall Laing Primary - work on our our Nature Trail
Clearing agapanthus, pokers and other weeds from the Nature trail that is being developed on two boundaries of our school. Also to cut down privet and remove dead branches and other rubbish.
How this project will benefit the community
This trail is introducing our community to NZ natives and will in the future encourage native birds and insects back into the area.
The children at our school can learn about Natives and Native wildlife without the cost of travelling away.

I have worked here before. They are creating a great resource for the children and community, many of whom are new to New Zealand and can learn more about our beautiful fauna.
