It's always fun getting new stuff and recently we took delivery of a landscape catchment model. This will be used to show school students what happens to water when it falls on the landscape. Here I am with Lynne Arnold (on the right). Lynne is an Educator with Guthrie-Smith and will be sharing this model in her work as part of a Water Education Resource currently being put together. I am looking forward to sharing this resource with Flaxmere Primary later this term.
This will be the last issue of Step Out for 2017. The end of the year is approaching fast and it's time to think about Christmas and relaxing holidays. Before we can totally relax however planning for 2018 is in full swing.
If you are a school don't forget the HBRC educational resources we are happy to share. For more details visit the Education pages on the HBRC website. If you are a corporate and would like to help the environment we can help you with a beach clean-up or a winter planting activity - email enviro@hbrc.govt.nz
Take care and Best Wishes from Sally Chandler, Community Engagement Coordinator.
