Mr Brooks' Antarctica Visit

Manuka Hub were really lucky to have Mr Brooks (Jessica's Grandfather) share his Antarctica journey with us.   Mr Brooks was asked to go to Antarctica to help a friend with a scientific experiment/project. He stayed there for 28 days with lots of other scientists to try and film parts of Antarctica from the air. We were able to see lots of images as Mr Brooks explained all of his adventures to us. The kids were very impressed with the small camera plane, which was released into the air by a bungee cord, the ice kitchen, the Hercules Plane that took 8 hours to get there, and a wee group of Emperor Penguins. 

After his visit Room 1 also enjoyed learning a little bit about Emperor Penguins.  Here are some of our fabulous stories.  We worked hard, doing our personal best to publish these to a high standard.
