Kia ora koutou, nau mai, haere mai ki te wiki o room 16 mo tēnei tau rua mano tekau ma rua. Hi everyone, welcome to Room 16's wiki for this year - 2012.

Term 2 Students in Room 16 have presented their assignments about the ANZACs. With such a multi-ethnic class, it was nice to see and hear how students were able to make connections with what the Australian and New Zealand soldiers endured and achieved during WW1 in Gallipoli, Turkey, during that ill-fated campaign. They also highlighted how soldiers from other nations, such as India, Tonga, Fiji, the Cook Islands, and Samoa were also part of the allied forces, if not in WW1, in other wars.

The major Unit Study focus for this term is in Science. Students will be doing an inquiry into Solar Energy - what it is?, how it affects all living things on Earth, and how we can harness and use it.
