Trees for Survival

Written By Kim Manunui

This year we are excited to have started a new collaborative partnership, facilitating for the Trees for Survival programme. St Patrick’s School is the first Taupō school to sign up to Trees for Survival programme.

We eco sourced and collected the seeds with a local ecologist. Then, we took them into the school to help the students prepare them to be propagated. They had lots of fun shaking the harakeke seeds out of their pods, popping out kōwhai seeds, and squishing out the tī kōuka seeds. These were sent off to a nursery and came back as seedlings!

Several classes at St Patrick's Catholic School, Taupo helped to pot up the 1000 little native seedlings and put them into their new shade house. These will be planted by students next year, restoring more native ngahere in Taupō. Thanks so much to The Warehouse Taupō for donating the potting mix for this project.

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
