Fonterra+Science+Roadshow+2009+Programme

Kia Ora Koutou Koata Today Te Atea pod attended the Fonterra Science Roadshow at Kawerau College. This was a great interactive show that encouraged the children to explore science. Exhibits were on display for children to explore and interact with set up around the hall according to its theme. Our children had approximately 50minutes to explore each of the activities. To help them out, each exhibit had a context board which includes information about how to use the exhibits, the science behind it, and where such things occur in everyday life. A number of the exhibits also had student explainers (senior college students) who were there to help our children enjoy each of the exhibits. The themes explored were: How things work, gravity, investigating life, astronomy, measurement, reflections, sound and planet Earth. All the children that attended had a great day and were buzzing when we got back to school. Check out some of the photos from the day. Naku noa Whaea Ange A big thank you to Fonterra, and other sponsers who made this day possible. (I will find out and put the sponsers in.) cheers.
