The Water Wardens


We have been learning about marine reserves and how to protect our fish.  I learnt that you cannot fish in marine reserves because it is protected by the government. You can't camp or by a house there either as it will get destroyed. This is a poster I have made to teach people about not feeding the fish.

Camp Recount 2015

I had such a great camp! I was excited that Ajani was my tent buddy. We were so happy. Everyday we got up at 7.00 O'clock. We had divine tasting breakfast, like spaghetti, cereal, milo and toast.


My team was the True crew. We worked awesomely as a team and this was on our field at Pt England School, this was last week on Wednesday, Also at 3.30 Everyday We went to the swimming pools to have a swim and a shower after our camp team leaders were Lomio!, Presayus! , Further on our camp Teacher was “Mr Baxindine”.

My favorite activities were Kayaking and the “Kill ZoNe” The teachers call it Top Town Mr Jacobsen called it Kill ZoNe.  You put down a board and you walk on it and try to not fall off you need to get to your base as quick as possible then you throw water bombs and we did

Hauhake Harakeke

We have been reading about harakeke. Harakeke is the Maori word for flax. We found out that the flax has different strands. There are the tupuna (grandparents), matua (father), whaea (mother) and baby (rito). You are allowed to cut the grandparents but if you cut the baby, father or mother the flax will die.
Here is my picture of granny telling the children about flax strands.
