Our
Enviro Programme For 2013
· Ensure
operating sustainable practises are continued at Netherton School.
· Continue
developing our Native area, Hill, Butterfly garden and Musical garden.
· Endeavour
to have our raised vege gardens
producing all year round and all produce from the gardens to be used in
good Nutritional programmes.
· Pot Luck
Tea “Foods of the World” (Celebrating our Cultural Diversity)
· Enviro
students and Lead teachers to meet early in the year with Kevin Campbell to
discuss more development down at the “Cut”
a)
Fresh water
b)
Jetty
· Meetings
to be held regularly (assembly) to ensure all new students and staff understand
the sustainable operating practises in our school.
· Continue
supporting other schools on their enviro journey.
· Catching
water from Junior Block roof. This will
be the beginning of a school irrigation system.
Environment Waikato kindly gave us a grant of $5000 towards this
project.
· Strengthen
ties with Community and local experts from DOC to help us create an ecological
corridor. Corridors are set up to allow birds, sinks and insects to move
through the area without undue stress. If this is created it would bring the
Native birdlife back in to Netherton school.
· Enviro
team, lead teachers, BOT and interested
community members to visit Hukanui school to learn about their “Living Room”
especially as our hall gets closer to moving onto our school sight. Emphasis on
Energy.
· Later in
the year invite Robyn Irving (Sustainability Facilitator) to our staff meeting
to explore the awards reflective process with staff.
· A
suggestion for school wide study at some stage during 2013 is “Free the Sea”
This is an inquiry based educational resource aimed to inspire students to use
our Inquiry Tree to explore our oceans, the issues that impact them and take
action to “Free the Sea”
· Perma
Culture design system for our school Vege garden using natural ecosystems
· By the
beginning of Term 4 we will be ready to go for Green/Gold
