Week 8 Certificates


Well done everyone!

Beach visit



The entrance to the harbour and Barrett Reef way in the distance
The Interislander ferry
Wellington City across the harbour
We saw Somes Island
We visited the beach with our buddies to learn about where different places are in Wellington Harbour. Our visit will help us learn about the Wahine.


Wahine 50


Here are Ben and his mum Abby showing us an old newspaper from the day after the Wahine sank.
We have been learning about the Wahine so we had lots of questions to ask and comments to make.
Thank you Ben and Abby for helping us with our learning!

Kitchen Chemistry Science!

Citizen scientist Stan Swan helped us with our kitchen chemistry by preparing an experiment to show how red cabbage can be used as an indicator of acid or alkali. 
We mixed the purple cooked cabbage juice with white vinegar (acid) and the colour turned pink.
We then mixed in baking soda (alkali) and it turned a greeny colour!
