Oamaru Creek

The Omaru Creek is in Glen Innes going towards Apirana Avenue.There was a problem with the creek.The creek was really dirty because people were flushing rubbish down toilet. So  the Maintenance Crew had a look. They decided to clean the creek because it was really dirty.

While the crews were cleaning the creek they found rubbish and they were not happy about it. They saw that the people were throwing stuff such as baby wipes, oil and all the other stuff. It wasn't the crew's  job to clean the creek but they did it because they wanted the area to be clean.

We  at Glen Innes school went to a part of the creek closest to Apirana Avenue, and that place is absolutely filthy. So we saw stuff that were not meant to be like fly spray,hose,algae on top on the water. We saw weeds that needs to get cut off, plants that block the water,sticks that were thrown in. Clothes were thrown and plastics.These are the pictures.
