Term 3 Impact

We've now kicked in to Term 3. Our topic this term is Impact: What impact do we have on the environment?What difference can we make? So far we've discussed some local impacts, we've looked into climate change and ecological footprints. The photos above show us exploring our back yard, looking at the state of the Kaikorai Stream and the native planting area beside it. It's time to start thinking about what might interest us for our ASPIRE project which will start in a few weeks time.

Matariki madness!

At the end of term two we had a whole lot of fun studying Matariki. This was a great way to round out a great term and look forward to the second half of the year that lies ahead of us. Here's some photos of a maori song, dance and games session we had with Matua and making and flying our kites.
