Faded Glory!
It's our fault for destroying nature, so it's our job to save it!

I think we could fundraise money to help save The Great Barrier Reef by doing these things:

1. We do a comerrecal about fundraising for The Great Barrier Reef and then tell everyone to raise some money and then give the money through a website and the top 10 people who raise the most money will have to send their photo to the website and they will be in the commercial and every month the top 10 people will change!
2. Make a website!
3. Make poster and tell everybody in your committing about this problem!

The Black Drain!
Rubbish, Rubbish EVERYWHERE!

1) Wairua river & Kaipatiki river

2) Wairua - Northland & Kaipatiki - Auckland

3) The Government has piped $2 million into a $4 million programme to improve freshwater quality in the Northern Wairoa River and many Northland dune lakes. Government is saying that they will make all rivers and lakes clean!

Off the Menu! NO MORE FISH! But what about my fish and chips?!

I think this rule is okay! I think this is okay because there is lots of other places that we can fish. If people didn't follow this rule there would be no more fish in shops for all the people who buy fish! I think this is fair on both sides because the people who sell fish will get their fish and the people who just want to fish for the family can go to another place to fish! But I think there is one problem, I think that they should lower the fine because what if someone didn't know their not aloud to fish in this area and caught one single fish and then went away and that person gets a $100 000 FINE! WHATTTTTT! So I think they should lower it down and maybe if the random person catches a lot of fish and takes a lot home, more than one time then they can have a $100 000 fine!

Selfie #1

I think all the boys are fans of famous rugby player and they play rugby as well. They are wearing clothes that represent sports teams! They were all at a rugby game and were watching their favourite team play! They were all smiling and having fun at the game! They were cheering and shouting! After a while the game had ended! they were getting reading to leave but they stopped because the saw the favourite player and wanted to take a selfie with them! As soon as the saw him they went to him and asked if they could take a selfie and he said yes! They took a selfie and and was so happy and full of joy!

THE END!

Cruising, Walking, or up in The Air!

If I had a choice to go see Millford Sound, I would want to see it on a helicopter! I want to see Millford Sound on a helicopter because I will get the best view, I also want to go on a helicopter because I have never been on a helicopter but I have been of a ship!

Quick Maths!

Let’s imagine that the average adult can lift 25 kg and the average child can lift 15 kg. How many adults and children will it take to move the giant squid (500kg) into its new room at Te Papa?

So if I wanted to know the answer to this maths problem I would do this:

425 divided by 25 = 17
75 divided by 15 = 5

So my answer is 17 adults and 5 kids!

Be Strong and Tough!

I think Julie the teacher that taught us self defence at Christ The King Catholic School, is really strong and tough! She is strong because she teaches self defence to so many girls around the world and she knows how to fight back and defend herself as well! I think she is tough because she isn't scared to fight back!
