This is pretty much one of the neatest things I have seen since I have been teaching!!! Room 5 have recently taken part in a virtual field trip to Antarctica and prior to their field trip one of the members of their class actually flew down there to see what its like!!! Above are pictures taken of him visiting Scott base and hanging out with the locals (hopefully not eating too many penguins!!) Can you see him in the pictures??? 

A really HUGE thanks to those in Scott Base who showed Killer around and took time out of their busy schedules to speak with the students.  You guys ROCK!!!
These images are thanks to Heurisko Ltd.

Great work today Room 1, I was extremely impressed with our question time after our a.v experience this morning.  You all retained a LOT of information.  These are pictures of our school having a lesson over the internet, talking to a DOC worker in the South Island with two other schools from around New Zealand.  Look more of this to come hopefully in the future!
