Year Four Dive Into Our New Inquiry

 


Today Year launched into our new moana topic. Did you know we live on the doorstep of Tikapa Moana - The Hauraki Gulf Marine Park?




Our morning classes used Google Maps Street View to explore the Gulf. The afternoon classes mapped the island of Tikapa Moana in their books.



Next both groups took action for our marine creatures by going on a litter hunt. Plastic rubbish travels down the drain to the sea, where animals eat it.





We sorted the rubbish into lunchbox waste and other waste. 

Thank you for the Whanau who pack a litterfree lunch. It helps A LOT!!! 


Lastly the morning group read about our local Wetlands and reviewed with an online quiz. The afternoon classes finished their mapping and sketched a Hauraki sea animal. 

All the classes got to sample pears from our school orchard as koha for their mahi.
