Waverley Keas 28 November 2017
The Waverley Keas and leaders went to the Southland Community Nursery. They potted up 54 kowhai seedlings. The Keas did this to help the community nursery add to the 10,000 native plants that the volunteers at the nursery grow every year, which is helping the environment. The community nursery helps supply the plants for projects. Plants have been used for example at Bushy Point, Otatara and the planting of the scooter track at Otatara School. The Keas went on a scavenger hunt in the bush. Some of the things they had to find was something with an unpleasant smell, something sticky, something with a pleasant smell and something that made a noise. That one was easy because the Keas talked like a bunch of birds! The Keas had a great fantastic time and I heard Kiwi (one of the Kea Leaders) say that this place is amazing.
