LEARNZ Natural Hazards Webconference

This is the final part of the LEARNZ virtual field trip to Te Moana-a-Toitehuatahi | Bay of Plenty, one of the most geologically active areas in Aotearoa New Zealand. This region is shaped by fault lines, volcanoes, and the ever-shifting tectonic plates beneath our feet. Join experts Craig Miller from Earth Sciences NZ and Daniel Pearce from Tauranga District Council answer some very interesting questions from ākonga, including whether it was a good idea to do a back flip in an earthquake! (spoiler alert - no! you should drop, cover, hold!) Thanks to The Natural Hazards Commission – Toka Tū Ake for funding this LEARNZ virtual field trip. Visit learnz.org.nz/hazards254 for the full trip with educational materials including the field trip videos.
