Here at Play to Learn our tamariki help to look after our garden. They topped up our garden with more bark. During this activity, we had a rich koorero about why we need barks in the garden. After putting the bark in the garden our tamariki spread the bark evenly everywhere to make our garden look neat and tidy. Great work, tamariki ma!
