    FOCUS / ARONGA

    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

    • We are FOCUSING...on New Zealand's unique geology by identifying a volcano and investigating all we can about it
    • We are FOCUSING...on Volcanoes by visiting one and investigating why it was important to the first settler
    • We are FOCUSING... the fact that NZ is situated on a fault line and investigating what could happen if that fault line moves
