On Thursday 23 October Lincoln Primary School in conjunction with Fonterra, the Department of Conservation, Te Ara Kakariki and EnviroSchools officially launched the 'Living Waters' project.
The project is a 20 million dollar project that aims to:
1) Improve biodiversity of local waterways
2) Build community relationships
We are one of 10 schools in New Zealand who have been asked to be part of this exciting project. We have been gifted a piece of land at Yarrs Flat to look after, restore and monitor for the next 10 years. This means that our current Year 1 children will visit and contribute to restore this important piece of the L2 for the next 8 years. They will see such a difference over this period in the biodiversity of the area.
