We have completed our survey of the plants and animals living at the Farm Cove 'beach', Tamaki Estuary just down from Fordyce Avenue. The University of Otago is encouraging everyone to participate in the long term monitoring of their own environment.
Room 1 had a fabulous time, discovering mud crabs, sand shrimps, rock oysters, mud flat whelks, sea snails, worm trails, cockles, large horn snails, water clams and northern tuatua. It was disappointing to see litter. It was all collected, put in a black rubbish bag and bought back to school.
Kia ora and welcome to Room 1 blog for 2017. We are a class of energetic year 5/6 learners and our teacher for most of the year was Mrs Poole, now for the last five weeks we have the dynamic duo of Mrs Harding and Mrs Madden!
