Year 10 students from Water Whanau enjoyed a ‘Rotorua Road Trip’ field trip yesterday, that was a part of their Term 4 ‘Identity’ learning context.<\/p>\n

A highlight of the day was\u00a0a fascinating\u00a0visit to The Buried Village<\/strong>, where students learned about the Tarawera eruption and visited the excavated\u00a0Te Wairoa<\/strong> archaeological site. The eruption of Mount Tarawera in 1886 is\u00a0one of New Zealand\u2019s greatest natural disasters.\u00a0The violent and unexpected eruption buried Te Wairoa<\/strong> and several smaller villages in the area under hot heavy ash and mud. It completely destroyed the famous Pink and White Terraces<\/strong>, one of New Zealand\u2019s first tourist attractions. Sadly, around 150 people lost their lives as a result of the natural disaster.<\/p>\n

Students also visited the\u00a0‘Skyline’<\/strong>\u00a0facility and enjoyed gondola and luge rides!<\/p>\n
