Visitors:

Inquiry:
The key idea is:
As part of the community we share in decisions that build better facilities which enhance Nelson lifestyles. We also contribute towards these facilities.
We aresplit into teams. Each team has a designing team and a planning team. Eventually (after exploring the technology design process) we are going to design a building, something futuristic that Nelson may need, while considering how local Goverments functions and plan for future needs.
Te Reo:
Responding to Kei te pehe akoe? is our focus.
