Seed bomb workshops for kids - be prepared to get your hands dirty!

Jane Carruthers from Ngā Manu Nature Reserve

In conjunction with EnvironSchools
For the season of celebrating the Maori New Year, signalled by Puanga and Matariki whetu, we are offering two Seed-bomb making sessions for tamariki/rangatahi. These sessions are related to two whetu, Tupuanuku and Tupuarangi, of the Matariki Constellation/Kahui Whetu.
We will make acknowledgements to these whetu as part of the session.

Bring a container to take away your dirt bombs for throwing in your garden at home.
• Saturday 15 July, 2.30pm and
• Sunday 16 July, 11.30am

Koha entry. Admission to the reserve not included. Bookings not required.
