National Tree Planting Day

In week 1, the Year 5s and Preps planted some flora in the Friendship Garden. Three experienced people named Josie, Michele and Michael kindly taught us how to plant the seedlings that were supplied by Greenlink. Together, the Year 5s and their Prep Buddies had lots of fun digging a hole and placing the plant inside it before covering the roots with soil. When others were planting their plants, the rest of the Year 5 and Preps were handed a worksheet to colour and draw on. It was basically a D.I.Y. booklet explaining how to plant a tree. With 110 new plants in our garden, WHPS is a step further to a greener environment.
