Year 6 Put Their Research Skills Into Action in the Estuary

 Today, Year 6 learnt about endemic, native, introduced and pest species. We learnt with the Science Learning Hub and then reviewed with a Kahoot, Ms Daniel made using the animals that live in the Wakaagranga Creek. We know the species in our estuary as in 2023 our Eco Warriors went on a trip there.  They observed the animals and then did DNA testing.  Here's the link to the blog post we made at the time : https://wakaenviro.blogspot.com/search?q=edna


Then it was time to put our research skills into action.  We each chose one estuarine species to read about and summarise into posters.  We are going to share our findings on the Piwakawaka windows. We are especially interested in how we can protect these animals. Check out our  beautiful posters HERE and HERE
