The science of rongoā — TEACHING RESOURCE
This article tells the story of Chris Ryan, a high school student who investigated the medicinal properties of kawakawa. Chris initially found there was no scientific evidence to support kawakawa as an antibacterial or antiviral agent. He found it odd that science did not back up the Māori practice of using kawakawa in rongoā – their traditional healing system.

Water content of foods
Water content of foods - In this activity, students quantitatively analyse carrot and banana for moisture content and total solids using and comparing two drying methods.
Biodegradability experiment - In this activity, students set up an experiment to determine the biodegradability of different substances. This experiment can be done in groups, with each group given the same or different items from the list below, or each group could be assigned two materials to compare, for example, plastic versus cardboard. Biodegradable Waste, Greek Yogurt Muffins, Light Snacks, Food Scraps, Food Science, Healthy Muffins, Global Recipes, Reduce Food Waste, Food Waste
