Revamping our Centre Garden
Here at BestStart Raumati our tamariki have been hard at work on a revamp of our centre garden. Armed with tools, team work and a positive attitude everyone headed into the garden. Our garden beds needed attention first up. Tamariki cleared them of weeds, leaves and twigs and then worked on the soil. Using spades and rakes, they dug and raked to aerate the dirt and because it was so dry, hosed it in preparation for planting. Over the last few days this gardening project has progressed as tamariki have continued to clear and prepare garden beds, chop and trim back plants and bushes and plant seeds. Our tamariki have been involved in lots of learning as they help care for and look after our natural environment, work as part of a team and gain a sense of achievement at having been part of making our garden look great again!
