GEGNZ Learner Summit - Auckland 2019

Finalising the presentation
Presenting at Matua Ngaru
Wow - 8 of our students were selected to head to Auckland to the GEGNZ Learner Summit at the beginning of August.
They spent 6 weeks working on a presentation about how to use the following Google tools:
My Maps, Tour Creator and Tour Builder to show a visual and interactive representation of their pepeha.

The team also got to attend other learner workshops that included music with Makey Makey, Ozobots and Sphero's.  We are excited to think we could be getting some of these to work with at WBS!

The Summit was held at a brand new school in Kumeu - Matua Ngaru.  It was very exciting to see such a future proofed school and the learners and teachers all came away with exciting new knowledge!


The team also met Suan Yeo - Head of Education at Google in Sydney and Michael Davidson who creates amazing Digital Breakouts that we use in class.

Many thanks to all of our parents, peers and staff that supported us in getting to this amazing opportunity!
