Taylor River Poem

What a fantastic piece of writing from Eve and Lauren.  Their poem will be displayed (etched in stone) along the banks of the river.

Once I was only a trickle

From the Wither Hills I came

Gathering flow and strength

Journeying towards the sea

A home to many creatures

You arrived, realised my potential

Water wheels for energy

Flax mills for rope, a highway for boats

Occasionally rebelling, surging free

You tethered me; stop banks, dam

Preventing flooding over Te Waiharakeke

You enhanced my banks, dredged me of my weeds

Yet I still remain the same,

Habitat for many creatures,

Now you walk beside me,

I take pride in myself

Care for me and I will never die

Freshwater fish slideshows and brochures from Term 2

Lauren and Deanna Jonah and Levi Spencer and Cooper Jennifer, Eve and Sophia Xenobia and Tyler We learned so much about freshwater fish last term: we also discovered that New Zealanders know very little about the fish that live in our streams, creeks, rivers and lakes! 
For example, did you know that whitebait grow into 5 different native fish?!
(all slideshows will be up by the end of the week)
