 In project papatuanuku I cut open a few feijoa's and digged out the seeds to plant. I can't wait to see them pop up and grow. 

This week both of our Discovery groups helped volunteer with Coast care. In March we weeded the sand dunes & this week we went back to the same area at 192 Marine Parade & replanted 2 different types of plants to protect our beach. Sand dunes are important primarily due to their protective role for coastal areas & as habitats for unique plant & aniaml life. We worked hard & dug holes to a certain depth before planting the new plants. 

I had fun at Ngaapeke Permaculture, we explored and fed the ducks and chickens, and pat the pigs, sheep and horses, we walked to the river and seen all the different native trees, Bananas and the kamokamo patch. Then we had a picnic lunch at the Asher Rd Estuary.  

This week I started painting a mandala painting. I chose nice bright colours and kept the same colour all the way around so it matched! I cant wait to see what it looks like finished.

I had a great time dancing to the goldies oldies disco. I had a yummy fried bread with pumpkin soup lunch and washed it down with a nice cold juice. It was a great way to finish off my week.  

 We went fishing at sailsbury wharf, we didn't catch a fish but I still had a fabulous time
