Class takes in the budget, a tall ship and the stars
Checking out the sixth floor of the Beehive and the Honourable Tau Henare's office before a short tour of Parliament Buildings and then sitting through the "Budget" were some of the highlights of a trip to Wellington for Sixth and Seventh Form Te Reo Maori class from Ruapehu Col-
lege with teacher Mernlyn George last week. The group watched the official welcome ceremony for the crew of the Chilean naval training ship, the sailing vessel Esmeralda, and later met many of the trainees. Viewing the original Treaty of Waitangi document was exciting and a
follow-up study to the class's Wananga in Ohakune to watch the comet and study of the planets was to visit the Carter Observatory in the Botanic Gardens to further their knowledge. It was a great few days with lots of learning and lots of fun, said Mrs George.
