Moanamana: Sharing our Learning

We are going to be spending some time in the rockpools/intertidal zone again this year. Our very keen marine scientists are itching to get involved in data collection, contributing to a pool of information being gathered by schools on the peninsular. Before we do this we wanted to give the new students to Mahutonga Matariki an overview of last year's learning.

Katie Fenton, our mentor marine scientist then did a presentation which explained her research. She is looking at environmental impacts on Kai Moana in a small East Coast, Ngati Porou community. Students were fascinated and full of questions. Katie will continue to work with us this year. A great role model!
