Kaitiaki of the birds

We have identified an environmental problem just outside our classroom.  Everyday the birds come down to feed on our left overs from lunch. They feed on the ground and from the bins that we put our rubbish in.  We are going to be the KAITIAKI of the BIRDS, and here is our proposal...

Our Proposal
We propose that we design and make bird feeders to feed the birds suitable food for the Winter.  Our bird feeder will help to feed the smaller birds and not the larger birds like seagulls.  We will buy the right food for the birds, and sustain this by having a fundraiser.

We are currently writing a persuasive argument to set out our opinions and reasons why we should be doing this.

WATCH THIS SPACE TO SEE OUR WORK, AND WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!

    1. Thanks Baiden for your comment. Ollie's Dad is going to make the bird feeder from our designs. We have to find out how much the bird food is going to cost.
