Te Mata Wetland Care Group

Te Mata Wetland Care Group Waihi Beach environmental project Everyone is welcome to join in.

A group of local volunteers has got together to help kids from the Waihi Beach Primary School to restore the Te Mata Wetland Reserve. The school has been growing native seedlings – Supported by Trees For Survival - and planting them around the margins of the wetland for three years now and the results are starting to transform the appearance of this area that lies right in the middle of the town.

Western Bay District Council has pitched in with funding for pathways, an ecological assessment, poisoning willows and spraying other pest plants such as convolvulus and blackberry. Now the Bay of Plenty Regional Council and Western Bay District Council are working together to develop an Environmental Plan that will provide funding to continue the restoration program over five years. Activities:
The group runs annual planting days with the school, and other working bees to keep weeds from smothering the young plants. Invitations will be sent out through this page, through Live Well Waihi Beach and through Waihi Beach Environment Society.
