Auroa Primary School Visits Lake Rotokare

This year we have a staff member, Mrs Derbyshire who is on leave for six months working as a Scientist.  She is working at the Lake Rotokare Scenic Reserve Trust.  You can read about the work that she is doing on her teacher blog which is located here. 

On Wednesday, the last week of School, we had the opportunity to send a group of students to Lake Rotokare for a day trip to look at the work that was being completed and to take part in some hands on Science learning.  Since then a number of students who were involved on that trip have produced recounts and reports about what they did.

You can read Jorja's recount all about her trip to Lake Rotokare here.   You can also read all about it from Madaline's perspective by clicking on this link here.

MOA Awards: Guest Post from Room Eight

Auroa Primary School has many different classrooms with blogs and fantastic student work - we've just had the MOA Awards which has been amazing, and this was the showcase for so many students to share their fabulous work with our community. We've been watching other classrooms efforts - if you haven't seen Room 8@Auroa Primary School you need to see their amazing work - we watched this video, a parody of Queen's 'We Will Rock You' created by the awesome students and teachers. You can click on the link to see some of their awesome work here. Well done everyone!
