Scavenger hunt article

On the 6th of August 2013 60 year 6 students went for a scavenger hunt around Havelock North.

A few days later all room 5 students were asked to write a newspaper article. We were given all the features an article had to include like the title, the introduction paragraph, the information paragraph and so on. After finishing we were asked to publish on our class I-pads on pic collage (a very handy app) and here's what mine turned out like.
