Rena Oil Spill | Forest and Bird
On October 5 the container ship Rena struck the Astrolabe Reef off the coast of Tauranga, spilling 360 tonnes of oil into the sea. This coastline is home to a rich array of seabirds, shorebirds, whales, dolphins and fur seals. The effect on the surrounding wildlife will no doubt be devastating - and will last for years to come, as the oil spreads throughout the food web. In this section, we outline some of the wildlife that can be found in this area, the effects on the individual species and how you can help. Bay of Plenty Shorebird Protection Programme Forest & Bird is developing a Bay of Plenty Shorebird Protection Programme which will help coastal birds, such as our endangered NZ dotterels, white fronted terns and oystercatchers.
Based on John Dewey 's philosophy that education begins with the curiosity of the learner, we use a spiral path of inquiry: asking questions, investigating solutions, creating new knowledge as we gather information, discussing our discoveries and experiences, and reflecting on our new-found knowledge. Each step in this process naturally leads to the next: inspiring new questions, investigations, and opportunities for authentic "teachable moments." <p style="text-align:right;color:#A8A8A8"></p>

Pearltrees videos
Hello there!
I have a problem - my grab function has failed. It's only Pearl Trees related, working fine everywhere else.
I'm enjoyong organising things here, but this is really frustrating! I can't get hold of pearls and move them to the appropriate tree.
Any suggestions?
