We have a TREEmendous NEED for Trees!
The 16th April at Westport North School is the Day the wind blew so TREEmendously...we lost 75% of the trees...
... BIG and small trees, old and young trees...
...mostly our favourite climbing trees, forts, space craft, a whole "Forest of Imagination" LOST!
... leaves stripped off everything not uprooted or snaped into two!
Replanting and regeneration of our "Forest of Imagination" will start here with this enormous pile of mulch...
...a mural of native birds along the fence of the "Mother Earth Orchard"...
...mulch around the orchard, then the remainder for regeneration of our "Forest of Imagination"...
Stumps will be left in place to become catalysts of imagination...
DOC will be re-enlisted once again to help collect seeds and seedlings...
...for more potting up and propagating.
Books will be consulted ...
Our 2014 Tui School Challenge products...
... all the nutrients a Forrest needs for growth!
A "TREEmendous School Makeover" would allow us to purchase larger trees for our "Forest of Imagination", supplementing our seedlings.
At Westport North School we are regenerating our "Forest of Imagination", a TREEmendous Team effort is required but the seeds are already sown.
