Did you know there are 3 different soil types at Makauri School? Some of us wondered why it was wet in certain areas of our playground. Was that to do with having different soil types? We dug down to find out! Some soil was crumbly and some was 'sticky'. We also noticed the soil was different colours deeper down. Was this the reason it was wetter in some places? How can we experiment to find out?
