Environment Committee Volunteer Day

Kate Stedman (13SN) —

On the 27th of August, the environment committee along with other Riccarton students and staff took part in our third volunteer day, this time at Otukaikino Reserve. 

After a short walk we arrived, where we were met by the instructors and shown what to do. 

We spent the afternoon planting native trees and afterwards had a shared lunch with the other volunteers from around Christchurch.

Thank you to Mr. Grubb and Ms. Ross for not only helping with transport but joining in with planting. 

It was an awesome day and everyone who came along got a lot out of the experience. 

We hope to continue volunteering and giving back to the community later this year. 

If you would like to attend please get in touch with the heads of Environment, Kate Stedman or Tori Cotton.
