🌱 Matariki planting 🌱

We celebrated Matariki at Owairaka today. As part of our celebration we planted a young manuka tree.
This year we have been learning about being 'kaitiaki' or guardians. 
We had repotted and cared for the young tree in our class for a while and had even given it a name - 'Manu' the manuka.
Today was the day to plant Manu the manuka outside.
We will continue to be kaitiaki and care for Manu and our other school plants and trees.
We have learned that being kaitiaki means leaving a place better than when we found it.
Ka pai Owairaka!
