Who Am I?

I am a Primary Science Teacher Fellow. The Teacher Fellowships are funded by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment and administered by the Royal Society of New Zealand. The Fellowships are designed to support the effective teaching of science in primary and intermediate schools.
Teacher Fellows are placed in a science organisation for two terms to gain an appreciation of the Nature of Science - doing science work in a 'real life' setting. I am lucky enough to be hosted by Wellington Zoo.

Sam's New Blanket

Today some students from Epuni School came to the Wellington Zoo to start their Bushbuilders programme. They had been knitting at school and they had made a blanket to give to the chimpanzees.
Here are some of the students handing over the blanket to the keepers.
Here's what happened when Sam got the blanket - I love the way he lays it on the ground carefully before sitting on it!
Sam using his new blanket to keep warm!
Well done to the students from Epuni School.
