Togs or Trackies?
Summer, Winter, Autumn, Spring!

I think the best time to visit your friends and family in New Zealand would be in the Summer holidays! December - February! These are my reasons why you should visit at this time:

  1. If you come to visit you family and friends this is the perfect time because there is no SCHOOL!
  2. The weather will be great at this time, there will be no cold and the sun will be shining bright!
  3. This is a great time to do some sports and summer activities!

The World Around Us! - Water, Water, Everywhere! - Week 2 - Day 5 - Activity 3 - SLJ - Wasting Away!

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!

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!
