The recent weather has certainly put the trees to the test!
Our maintenance guru, Kjell, has been working hard in the Whakamaru Section, just north of Tram Road, clearing away the fallen trees to ensure the trails are open for enjoyment.

A heartfelt thanks to the incredible team of students from Upper Atiamuri School who dedicated their morning to planting 1,000 native plants. It was also a joy for these young environmentalists to witness the growth of the plants they had previously planted.
Also, a very special thank you to New World Tokoroa for their generous donation of fruit for the children today; it was thoroughly enjoyed by them.

A warm shout-out to the Mercury team and your families for braving the chilly, foggy morning to plant natives trees by Lake Atiamuri. As the fog cleared and the sun broke through, the cool air remained, yet the vigorous activity of planting 2,000 native trees quickly brought warmth to all.
We extend our heartfelt thanks for your continued support of our project.
