Biodiversity in Room 12

Petra Leonard —

Room 12 is participating in a Biodiversity study for the University of Otago.

Once a month, Room 12 will put out monitoring equipment around our green house. We are testing to see how many animals, and what type we have around Tahuna school. We are part of a cluster of schools completing this experiment.

We had an expert from the University, Carol,  come and talk to us about the importance of endemic and native animals, and pest control.

The following photos were taken by Krystal Walsh, showing our equipment.
