Visit to Rotokare Scenic Reserve











On the 19th May all 4 classes from our junior school headed down to Lake Rotokare for the day. We were met by Melissa the educator who planned an excellent day of activities for us. These included finding out about the pests that used to live at Rotokare and why the fence is up. Melissa did an experiment and showed us with a container of water how much fresh water there is in the world and why Wetlands are important and worth looking after. We all had an informative bush walk and managed to fit in a quick lunch as well!
