Robotics Rōpū Kaupapa

Robotics Rōpū begins!

Matt and Carsten from Fisher & Paykel Healthcare help our Robotics Rōpū brainstorm ideas about how we can use technology at Pt England School to reduce waste. 
Our Rōpū  had some amazing ideas and and shared them with each other instantly through shared slides and docs. We are using our blogs to share our progress with the school and the world. 

Motutapu Tree Planting

On Sunday we went travelled by ferry to Motutapu Island to help the Motutapu Restoration Trust plant native trees.

 By the end of the day we had planted 900 trees!

Thank you David, Christine and the Kiwanis group for providing this amazing opportunity for students to represent Pt England for the second year in a row. We can't wait to go back next year!
