Year 12 Biology Camp in Dunedin Newsletter Year 12 Biology Camp in Dunedin Newsletter 7 Newsletter 17 May 2013 Principal: Grant Dick [email protected] www.csc.school.nz Phone 03 236 7646 - Fax 03 236 7645 - Grange Street, P O Box 94, Winton Editorial A very warm welcome back to our school community to Term 2 2013, and a big thank you to everybody for such an overwhelming welcome for me as I settle into this new position as Principal at Central Southland College. Appreciation must be given to Mrs Summers, and in fact all the staff, for leading this school over the past little while, and enabling me to walk into an environment that is providing a solid, stimulating and exciting learning experience for our students to thrive in. At my first assembly I spoke about my first impression of this school, and that was watching a large group of our students who had bussed into town to support and cheer on our rugby team. The students were well presented, encouraging of each other and represented our school values extremely well. This is so important wherever we are; home, school or in the community, when a large group of our students can display this when they don’t realise they are ‘being watched’ tells me these values are well ingrained. I am really looking forward to getting to know our school community, please don’t hesitate to make yourself known to me whether at a meeting, on the sporting side line, or at an event. I would like to wish our stage challenge crew all the best as they head on stage tonight. Grant Dick Principal Art News On Friday the 10th of May the Level Two Photography class went on a field trip to capture some subject matter for their folio boards. We are trying to use photos to explain issues that affect Southlanders. We are looking at the economic threat from the closure of Tiwai, the state of government owned housing and the neglect of our train station. It was a great day out with lots of awesome images taken. In the classroom, our Year 10 class have just submitted their assessments on Shane Hansen inspired skateboards. These are amazing and the students have done extremely well! The Year 11 class is currently in the printmaking zone, they are working on dry point etching and woodblocks. Finally the Year 13 class are working steadily towards their own individual folio boards. The New and Improved Crab Camp The Year 12 Biology class went on the now annual Crab Camp to the Marine Studies Centre in Portabello, Dunedin this week. We left on Sunday afternoon and stayed in the (haunted?) house on Quarantine Island. This is a short boat trip over from the Marine Studies Centre so we were back there by 9am on Monday morning, ready for learning! The focus of the trip is to investigate the adaptations of marine animals for living in the ever changing inter-tidal zone. The students did some classroom exercises before heading out to the beach to collect data by counting the different species along a transect line up the beach. We finished the day by dissecting a Cancer Crab, a Southern Arrow Squid and a Spiny Dog Fish. The trip is incredibly worthwhile for learning about the environment and for the exposure Tommi Perkov, Devon Burgess, Courtney O’Callaghan to people from the University of Otago who are so enthusiastic about their subject. Thanks to Mr Dunn who helped with the trip. Annie Keown Biology Teacher Sinead Dunn, Brooke Dyer Alex Kinley and Kurtis Smith Taylor Hall, Cheyna Stirling, Steve Cutler (Instructor), Amber Batt Ashleigh Hoten-Walker, Brooke Dyer, Sinead Dunn eLearning and ICT at Central Southland College Many of you will have wondered about the new online learning system that has been introduced called Ultranet. The school has invested in this tool to support the diverse learning that occurs during class time. At the moment staff are learning how to use the new system and it’s many features for themselves. The English Department staff have begun by putting weekly homework tasks online for all the Year 9 and 10 students to complete. Staff from other subjects and classes are beginning to put on content such as: images, links to websites and videos, class notes, slideshows and a wide variety of other support material, for their own students to view. As we approach our fibre broadband connection hookup confirmation and the ability to bring a digital device to school to work on with a reliable wireless network for all students, it is hoped that the new Ultranet LMS will become another focal point to support teaching and learning in our school, accessible from anywhere and on any device. Next term we are aiming to add the ability for parents and caregivers to log into the system and see a range of information about the classes that your children are in. This will include attendance, achievement and subject information among other data for your child only. If you have any questions or concerns you are welcome to contact Mr Gray at school or via [email protected]. The ultranet web address is: csc.ultranet.school.nz Physical Education at CSC Currently our junior PE classes are doing a fitness unit. Students were running a lot at the end of Term 1 in preparation for the school cross country. For the first three weeks of this term they have been doing circuit training and team training activities. Year 11 Economics The Year 11 Economics class are currently completing an assessment on the decisions producers make. We are using our local business Craigpine as our case study. 20 students visited the Craigpine mill recently to study the production processes and took a guided tour around the site. All students were very impressed with the way the mill operated and are now writing up a report on the producer decisions made by Craigpine. Have you had a go at being the Math Geek of the Week? Mrs Black’s classes have been fiercely vying for the The International Friendship Club recently met for opportunity to be the top ranked geek each week, by a shared lunch to farewell our five short term Thai submitting an answer to the maths problem on the students; Aum, Jaa, Stang, Gam and Luknam.

  • Anthropogenic Impacts on Waituna Lagoon: Reconstructing The
    i Anthropogenic impacts on Waituna Lagoon: Reconstructing the environmental history Sarai Cosgrove 2011 A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for a Master of Science degree in Ecology at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand ii iii Abstract Waituna Lagoon is a shallow temperate coastal lagoon in Southland, New Zealand. The 1,350 hectare Waituna Lagoon and associated wetland system is of national and international importance for its unique ecology and the cultural values placed upon it. Waituna is opened to the sea ca. 1-2 times annually, during which time it becomes estuarine. This opening regime has been artificially managed since 1908, with an unknown impact on the lagoon. Since 2007, Waituna appears to have experienced rapid degradation and eutrophication, possibly due to intensification of farming in its catchment. It has rare, extensive beds of the seagrasses Ruppia megacarpa and Ruppia polycarpa, which have been lost from many similar systems due to eutrophication and sedimentation. Waituna Lagoon is currently under active management to preserve its unique ecology, and its restoration to a more natural state is being considered. This study aims to reconstruct Waituna Lagoon’s natural opening regime and Ruppia dynamics, as understanding the natural ecosystem is important for restoration. The hypotheses are: (1) that under a natural opening regime, environmental variations within Waituna Lagoon were less frequent but more extreme; (2) that Ruppia was not present in Waituna Lagoon under a natural opening regime; and (3) that Ruppia was not dominant in Waituna Lagoon under a natural opening regime. Three push cores (130, 83 and 64 cm length) were collected from the sheltered Shand Bay and from the wind-exposed, deepest site in the main lagoon.

  • CRT Conference 2020 – Bus Trips
    CRT Conference 2020 – Bus Trips South-eastern Southland fieldtrip 19th March 2020 Welcome and overview of the day. Invercargill to Gorge Road We are travelling on the Southern Scenic Route from Invercargill to the Catlins. Tisbury Old Dairy Factory – up to 88 around Southland We will be driving roughly along the boundary between the Southland Plains and Waituna Ecological Districts. The Southland Plains ED is characterized by a variety of forest on loam soils, while the Waituna District is characterized by extensive blanket bog with swamps and forest. Seaward Forest is located near the eastern edge of Invercargill to the north of our route today. It is the largest remnant of a large forest stand that extended from current day Invercargill to Gorge Road before European settlement and forest clearance. Long our route to Gorge Road we will see several other smaller forest remnants. The extent of Seaward forest is shown in compiled survey plans of Theophilus Heale from 1868. However even the 1865 extent of the forest is much reduced from the original pre-Maori forest extent. Almost all of Southland was originally forest covered with the exception of peat bogs, other valley floor wetlands, braided river beds and the occasional frost hollows. The land use has changed in this area over the previous 20 years with greater intensification and also with an increase in dairy farming. Surrounding features Takitimus Mtns – Inland (to the left) in the distance (slightly behind us) – This mountain range is one of the most iconic mountains in Southland – they are visible from much of Southland.
