So great to have Wendy from Love Bittern Project sharing her expert knowledge and passion for the Bittern/Matuku-hūrepo with us on Friday. Did you know that Matuku-hūrepo are a flagship species for our wetland ecosystems. As a species, Bittern embody wetlands like no other.

Last week the New Plymouth Tramping Club came to visit. Our Enviro Leaders showed them around and talked about all our enviro projects. Our tours are such a great opportunity to share our learning and to practice our public speaking skills.

Lots of fun activities organised by our student leaders for Daffodil Day. We could dress up in yellow, orange, and green, combined with Wacky Hair Day. Unfortunately, the majority of our 1500 daffodils along the bank did not flower in time. We hope to be selling bunches of daffodils for $5.00 from our Enviro stall very soon. All the money raised from this and our dress-up day will be donated to the Stratford Daffodil Collection.

Lots of super speedy runners and personal best achievements were met across the school for our cross country on Monday. It was awesome to have Mattie from Sport Taranaki, our Health Active Living Facilitator, at the start line motivating all our runners. Thank you to Friends of Toko School (FOTS) for supplying ice blocks and sausage and bread after the event.

On Friday last week, we had our Year 7 & 8 Winter Tournament. We entered a netball and a rugby team. Our netball team played four games, we lost 3 and won 1. Our rugby team played three games and we will be competing for the Taranaki Trophy in the rugby final on Friday 11th September at the Hawera Hub. We had a great day. Thanks to our parent coaches and parent supporters on the day.
