Great Postcard Project!

We have been taking part in the Enviroschools Great Postcard Project.
In our Whanau Groups an older child and a younger child have been working together to write a postcard about what we do as an Enviroschool. We will be sending these to other Enviroschools, such as Greytown Primary School, Johnsonville School and St Benedicts Primary. We have used magazine pictures to decorate the postcards. We have been writing about things like: Movin' March, that we have the Silver Enviro-Award and what kind of projects we have around the school. Soon we will be sending these off and we will receive some for each of the classrooms.
