Conservation+Week

As part of Conservation Week we entered into a competition, run by DOC, to find the longest food chain in our school grounds. The children hunted high and low, and found many interesting creatures. We then worked together to write lyrics explaining the food chain. And guess what? We WON!!!! These are comments from the, Ruud Kleinpaste, Bug Man, who judged the competition. //"This was a really nice competition to judge; just loved spending my Saturday morning going through it all and it shows how New Zealand kids know exactly what's happening, out there, in the wild, **WILD** world!//

// Gold Medal: **Lyttleton Main School**; for their use of multimedia, creating a song and lyrics, plus pictures to match, with humour and an unexpected twist in the food chain; I can't get the tune out of my head, guys! It should become a stage show... so cool! " //
