Erosion of drains next to our school.

We have been looking at the erosion of the drain walls next to our school. We noticed that the drain right next to the school had little erosion yet lots of agapanthuses plants. The drain over the road looked a lot worse and even some of the fence posts were just hanging. Not much vegetation was on that side apart from Leaderbrand lettuces a long way inside the fence. Could this be the problem??

Science Fair Project Ideas

Hi All,

We hope Term 3 has started well for you all at Kaingaroa. At Makauri we have a few events coming up which we are excited about. One of them is the Tairawhiti Science Fair. It's about creating things to solve problems in our community and sharing them with each other. Some of the problems we have been trying to solve at our school and in our community are the rat problem, recycling rubbish, and stopping the use of plastic. We also have a wasp problem in the summer.  We would like some ideas and solutions for some of the problems that you may have at your school that we might be able to investigate ourselves. If you have any ideas that might inspire us, please let us know.
