Native tree planting next weekend | Sunday 30 July
Native tree planting | Sunday 30 July, 10.00am–12.00pm, 50 Atlantis Street, Christchurch, Red Zone Planting. (Parking on site)
Please join Eco Action Nursery Trust, and help students and communities plant 5000 native trees and plants they have grown. It is a great atmosphere with heaps of fellow student and parent enthusiasts. Please bring drinking water, solid footwear, and your favourite spade if you have one. There will be 450 spades on site, so everyone can help. The more the merrier!
Help our community help itself by developing this Christchurch community asset that will last for generations to come. The grown forest will provide habitat and food for native birds and lizards as well as sequester carbon to help with global climate change. It's also quite fun to plant a few plants!
This is the third of four plantings that will see 20,000 locally sourced, student grown, native plants and trees planted in the ground at 50 Atlantis Street. The last planting day for this year will be Sunday 3 September. Preparatory School students have been involved in planting seeds and potting seedlings on our own nursery for this community project. Students who attend can see Mrs Leota for points towards their Cultural Badge.
