Room ones Camp to the Bay of Plenty

From Wednesday 11 of June to 13 June Friday Room 1 travelled to Waihi then onto Papamoa and Tauranga. Even though it rained on the Wednesday and Thursday off and on a great time was had by all. We visited a number of places The Waihi Gold Museum, the Martha mine then onto our camp site at the Pacific Camp in Papmoa. On the Thursday we sent the morning at the Classic Flyers, then on to the Salt Pools at the Mount, which of cause were hot! On the Friday we cleaned up then travelled back to Waihi to the Newmont Education Centre were we learnt about mining and gold. A big thanks to the parents who came on the trip and helped out.
