Term Two: Saving our Pool Inquiry

In Term two students in Room 16 focussed their inquiry on the local swimming pool. The local council felt that the cost of maintaining the pool was too much so intended to either close the pool or offer it to the community to fund. The students felt that with only one other pool in the town it was important that the pool remained opened. With lots of work and investigating the students managed to put together a mock submission to the council, explaining their views using factual information. It was very successful and had real meaning.
