Our Motuihe Island Trips

Both Junior School and Middle School have been to Motuihe Island this week.
Both days were as beautiful as Auckland is known to provide!!

One of our Learning Objectives for this study is:
Looking at Motuihe Island with regards to:
Earth Systems -

• geoshere [land] - beaches, cliffs, rocks;
  
• hydrosphere [water] - sea, water tower;
  
• atmosphere [air] - wind, breeze, clouds;
  
• and biophere [life] - plants, birds, insects.
  

We are now going to research the science behind these systems, write poetry about, write recounts of our time, produce some art inspired by the trip etc.
Every class will put their own spin on it and we always enjoy sharing our findings and our outcomes with our buddy classes.
