Here is an email I just received from the co-ordinator
of March Monitoring Month.You have won the top prize
in this national competition and have clearly made
a big impression with the quality and depth of your work.
Well done!
Hi Hilary and 9MKE,
We are delighted to inform you that your entry to March Monitoring
Month and Koura Kraze 2008 has been awarded one of our top prizes.
We were very impressed with the amount of work your students put into
your waterways unit. In particular the comprehensive analysis of the
health of the waterway carried out by each and everyone of you was
fantastic. Clearly articulating the sources of pollution which can
affect the health of your river and offering steps to minimise
pollution in the future was very pleasing.
As the major prize winner you will receive monitoring equipment
including a clarity tube, pH paper and a net valued at over $300 to
help you with your future water monitoring endeavours.
On a personal note I have enjoyed interacting with you and your
fantastic class as part of March Monitoring Month and Koura Kraze 2008.
You did an outstanding job.
We hope you will keep in touch and let us know about your future
environmental monitoring projects.
Your work will be profiled in our next EMAP Newsletter which is
included in the ED Gazette Vol 87 Issue 9 due out on 2/06/2008.
We also hope you will get involved in March Monitoring Month and
Koura Kraze in 2009.
Kind regards
Rebecca
