We planted spinifex to help the sand dunes so they wouldn’t disappear as the sea levels are rising and Ahipara is losing its large amounts of land. Planting spinifex won't stop the erosion but it will help to slow the effects of erosion down.
After all our hard work we had a sausage sizzle and lunch before heading back to school.
We planted 750 spinifex and a number of harakeke, a top effort!
An enjoyable day was had by all and getting sand blasted was certainly worth it.
