“The children loved taking part in something meaningful to care for our ocean. The provided resources were a big hit - children loved their gloves and the posters provided a lot of discussion. They enjoyed sorting through the rubbish collected and comparing and discussing the results of each group. As a class, we've been learning about Te Moana this term and how to be kaitiaki. This was the perfect ending to our inquiry.”
