Fwd: Shantytown trip - 14th November




Good afternoon everyone,

We have a trip booked in to go to Shantytown on Tuesday, 14th November. 

This trips theme is 'Rongoā'. Rongoā is the traditional Māori healing system that often includes using the medicinal properties of New Zealand native plants. 

The children will learn ways of identifying plants and discuss how native plants were used for clothing, craft, construction, and medicinal purposes. 

There will be a train ride during the day, and a short bush walk to identify native plants.   

The cost is $5.00 per student. Parents and caregivers are free. 

Bring a packed lunch along with morning and afternoon tea, and a drink bottle. Pack clothing & footwear appropriate for the weather. This day will go ahead in all weather except for torrential rain. 

Please email me on this email address and let me know if you're coming by this Friday, 10th November, including the age/s of your child/children attending. 

Hope you all have a great week. 

Shelley 😄
