Rush Hour at Auroa Primary School

We recently collaborated with the students from 4A from the Australian Independent School in Jakarta, Indonesia.  While we were talking with them we discussed how big our areas around our school was.  Jakarta has around 15 million people living in it.   After we spoke both classes used Google Earth to check out their school and they looked at ours.  That got us thinking about traffic, so Paige and Kadian, supervised by Mrs Auld, went outside our classroom, outside our school by the front gates and filmed the traffic chaos outside Auroa Primary School during the middle of the day.

Mystery Skype with Indonesia

Today in class we took part in our first Mystery Skype session of 2016. It was a country that Mr Webb has not even Skyped before - we were lucky to mystery Skype wiht 4A AIS from Jakarta, Indonesia.

We learnt a whole lot about their country - it has a few more people than New Zealand in it. It was a fantastic experience for our students and has left us looking to answer lot more questions about Indonesia. You can click on the link to 4A AIS here.
