MTG Trip

Earlier this term all of the Year 5 and Year 6 classes visited the MTG in Napier to find out all about the Napier earthquake that struck on the 3rd February 1931. In groups we had to imagine that we had gone back in time. We were reporters and had report about what was happening to everyone. We have created a short video to explain affects of the earthquake on the people at the time.
