St Joseph's School, Morrinsville

One school that has been very active in the Amazon Adventure has sent in these photos of the projects they've started as part of the Telecom Amazon Adventure.

St Joseph's School in Morrinville got into the adventure in a big way. Morrinsville teacher, Pauline McLeod, worked to integrate the programme into all curriculum areas for the school. Classes used it to help students develop their language and research skills, and involvement also provided students with opportunities to practise all kinds of technologies.

Class activities included making their own Amazon rainforest, writing stories and poems, and making cushions in the shape of their favourite Amazon animals.

You can see the results of these activities for yourself in the photos which follow.

Another Amazon class project to check out is the one at Heretaunga College in Upper Hutt
