Water
Cycle Inquiry
In
Action
Room
18, along with the fantastic SPS new entrants of Room 1, took to the streets to
discover what is really happening with their inquiry topic! The Panmure Basin changed
from being a Mt Wellington recreational icon to a tool of educational and
inspirational success.
Led
by Mrs Shortt, Whaea Barb and Mr Cowlrick, the two classes walked from SPS to
the Panmure Basin, looking out for the various elements of the water cycle that
they could identify. The myriad of learning of experiences was too many to
count.
The
fantastic trip also allowed the students to use their Travelwise skills that
they learnt in Term 1; staying safe on the trip to Panmure Basin and back.
The
Room 1 five-year-olds were buddied-up with the Year 6 students of Room 18;
giving Room 18 students an incredible opportunity to show leadership and be a
role model. Room 18 took this opportunity and ran with it.

Looks like you had a great time at the basin and I heard you all did a fantastic job of being senior 'buddies' to our year 1 children! Awesome Room 18!
