Wind Farm Trip - Part 1 on PhotoPeach

Room 12 takes a trip to Argentina!

Hola blog readers! Our current Inquiry topic is 'How can we show respect to visitors during the RWC?'. We decided that one of the best ways you can show respect to someone from another country is gaining an understanding of who they are and where they are from. The country we have been given to investigate is....... Argentina! For the last two weeks we have been researching furiously to get an understanding of what life is like in Argentina. So far we have discovered some fun facts (Argentina has a similar climate to NZ, the Puma is their National Animal and nearly everyone knows how to Tango!), learnt how to play 'Captains Coming' in Spanish and gathered plenty of fantastic Argentinian recipes ... Yum!

Getting our hands dirty for Conservation Week

This week some keen volunteers from Room 12 (Helped by Casper's Mum Kirsten) headed down to the Makoura Stream to help out with some planting. They came back happy, tired and COVERED in dirt! Ezekiel, Shawni, Beth, Jayden, Liam, Owen, Lachie, Marshall and Kodi got their hands dirty for the environment. Here are some pictures of our keen tree planters:
