Term 1 River Study Trip

In term one this year out theme was all about looking after the world around. We were hopefully wanting to answer the focus question of"If God is soverreign, then why do we need to bother to look after the world around us". This was a pretty deep and meaniningful question but in the end we kinda figured out that we all had a serious responsbility to look after the world around us because God left us in charge of it!
As part of this study we had an in depth look at water quality issues in the Pohangina River. This was carried out together with the local regional council, Horizons MW. Here's a picture of a few of room 11's boys checking out the water clarity using a clarity tube. Whaddya see Melo?
