Pataka A Hastings Intermediate School

IPENZ Project

The reason for the projectOur organic garden produced a surplus of food

this year

The Process

• Meet with our engineer• Identify the issue• Develop a brief • Develop our knowledge and ideas• Draw up some plans• Cost out the project• Raise some funds• Build the pataka

The problem• We wanted to be

able to store the excess produce from our organic gardens so the food technology students would be able to use fresh vegetables year round.

Anyone for soup?

Simon meets the KAT team• We started by listing the vegetables we wanted to store so we could

do some research into their storage requirements

Testing our knowledge

We tested whether water or soil (sod) worked better to keep a constant air temperature underneath

Presenting our plansCameron and Nathan convincing us their ideas were the best.

Raising funds• Cameron and food, hmmm…

Time to buildTeam work, these poles are heavy!

Hey, where are the boys?

The KAT team met twice during the holidays to get the pataka started
