Its MOA Awards time for 2018.  Every second year our cluster of four local schools the MOA Kluster (Matapu, Opunake, Auroa and Kaponga Primary Schools) hold a digital awards evening- this year taking place in Term Four.

Auroa School students have a huge number of projects that they are working on and contributing towards as we head towards these awards.   The photograph shown above is Zoes entrry into the photographic competition, she is wanting some input into a title for this picture - what could it be called? Is there anything she could do to the image?
