Dave the scientist and his helpers Beth and Sam visited Taieri Beach School. They brought  Shihah, a teacher from Malaysia, who was very impressed with the science our children were doing.

Harry and Louie, along with their scientist friend Sam, tested for phosphates.


James and Ethan, along with their scientist friend Beth tested for oxygen and Delrio and Hunter worked with Dave the scientist to check the pH.
