Perfect for blog-watching: Papatoetoe High School's project

This was in the latest wai-care newsletter sent out to the school.

Did you check http://waipapatoetoestreamproject.blogspot.com ? With the help of a PD team, most of the litter was removed, and classes got all their plants in before the holidays, supervised by the resident family of kingfishers. There is plenty more to clear and plant in coming years, and the students and teachers are setting up systems to monitor the hoped-for ecological changes.

We are still working on cleaning up the area and waiting for some of the planting to grow a little before posting them on the site.
