Conservation competition
YOUNG conservationists were keen to participate in this year’s Brian Alexander Conservation Award run by the Eastern Bay of Plenty branch with schools submitting a record number of projects. These ranged from studies on driftnet fishing and Hector’s dolphin to the pukeko, the white heron and kiwi conservation. The entries were judged
by the branch and local headmasters and some of the winning projects were displayed in the Department of Conservation’s Whakatane office. Branch chairperson, Helen Harrison, is pleased the local schools are becoming so interested in environmental and conservation issues and the branch hopes to allocate the prizes more widely next year.
