Kia ora and thank you for visiting our class blog. We are a class of Year 5/6 students at Karoro School in Greymouth, New Zealand. Our teacher is Mrs Barrow.
Level 3 Social Science AO: Understand how people make decisions about access to and use of resources.
As a way of reducing our own plastic use we are going to be making beeswax food wraps to use in our lunchboxes. They smell delicious!! We are using the ironing method to make these.
Kia ora Ruma Rima, Your beeswax wraps look great! I was at Paihia School in the Bay of Islands last week and they were making beeswax wraps to. They had melted the beeswax in an electric frypan (with an adult) and then the adult lay the fabric in the electric frypan for seconds and then pulled it out and the students held it carefully while it dripped dry - again this only took seconds! It is fantastic that so many students are starting to think about using less plastic in lunchboxes. We definitely need to make changes. Have you tried your beeswax wraps yet? What are your thoughts? Tania

Kia ora, I am Kareem from Gilberthorpe School. I loved this because you are keeping the environment clean. You taught me to put rubbish in the bin straight away. How come you forgot to put something at the end of the post.
Hi Kareem thank you for your comment. I loved doing the beeswax wraps. I haven't used my wrap yet but I'm sure I will use it a lot. You should show your teacher the video about the beeswax because it is a lot of fun. From Billie.
Kia ora, I'm Ms Raisin from Gilberthorpe School. My own son made a beeswax wrap at technology although I have to admit that we are yet to use it. We have a school family that are apiarists. They service our own school hive too - It has the best honey I have ever tasted! They have loads of information about Bees and Bee bi-products on their Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/Hermanshivehire/ The'd be sure to answer any questions that you have I'm sure!
Kia ora, Milla here from Gilberthorpe School. I liked the way you have added photos and videos I would love to make something awesome like that, Since it's holidays it's a great time to have fun!! I also love the idea of not using plastic for this awesome idea. Can you put anything in it?? -Milla
Hello, this is Billie from Karoro School. Thank you for your comment our class does care about the environment and the food wraps are a good way to save our environment.
Hi Milla thank you for the comment, you can actually put food in the beeswax food wrap because it has natural bacteria in it. We made food wraps to help save our environment from plastics.
Kia ora Ruma Rima,
