thank you
St Mary’s School
40 Campion Rd
Gisbor
Dear Renee,
I am writing to you today to thank you for all the things that you have helped me and the group with. We had an absolute blast and the memories made will forever be some of the greatest highlights of my life. I did notice that I over talked you over a couple of times on the lug. Thank you for looking out for all of us, making sure I did all the things right on the flying fox and being super fun to be around.
One of my highlights were Rock clubbing and height rop. You are a great role model to all of us and I will love to see you again at camp next year at campion. Thank you so much for this great experience.
So thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. I had an amazing time and I'll remember it forever and ever.

The big wave
The big wave
When you're just a little girl the ocean is as big as the universe.
I thought I'd never be able to do what my sister and her friends could do. They could swim unguis the humongous waves.
As I walked towards the colossal waves. My heart was jumping out of my chest like a frog.
So I was in the deep cloudy water as the waves got bigger into enormous as big as the sun.!!
When I got out of the water I sprinted to my mum on the beach because when you're just a 2 years old girl the ocean looks as big as the universe.

Orcinus Orca
The Orcinus orca is one of the biggest members in the dolphin family. They also swim in pods mostly of 40. They are also known as the king of the sea. They also weigh up to 6 tons(5,443 kilograms).
Orca are black and white. They have huge teeth to catch fish and other things. They have a flexible tail and they have fins like dolphins. They look a bit like magpies and are cheeky like them too. Orca don't have normal ears like we do, they have echolocation. So they can connect with their friends and their pods. Orcas also have brilliant eye sight to see their prey.
Orca live worldwide in the ocean. Sometimes offshore and in cold water and Antarctic water too. Most of the time they live in tropical places with dark blue seas and sometimes in clear waters.
Orca are carnivores. They like to eat seals, fish and squid. They have to come up for air like dolphins and they can hold their breath for a long long time. Orca have a motion of swimming up and down like whales.
Orcas need to be protected because they were around when the dinosaurs lived on earth. They are one of the kings of the sea and I think that they need to be looked after.
today i was learning about how to write a creature report.
I enjoyed choosing the topic because i got to do do my favorite animal which is an Orca.
i found it hard to find the facts about them because i didn't know that much.
Next time i don't think i can do anything better.

Dolphins are endangered
I was learning how to right a speech in class
I enjoyed writing my speech because I liked convincing people to save dolphins.
I found it hard to research the facts because I had to research them.
I don't think I can do anything better.
Haven't you always longed to see majestic dolphins jumping through the crystal clear water? Well I have and have even been lucky enough to see them in real life, in England. Dolphins habitat is becoming more crowded by boats, they are hunted in Japan and they are getting tangled in fishnets. They are the most amazing animal in the ocean and I believe we need to act now and save these unique creatures.
According to the department of conservation New Zealand is the marine capital of the world. There are 42 species of whales and dolphins in NZ. Dolphins swim in pods mostly of 40 with there family but sometimes they are separated from their pods by fishing boats. Dolphins love to jump close to boats and swim underneath them, although this would be amazing it can be dangerous for the dolphins sometimes. I strongly urge you to be aware of dolphins when on a motor boat. If you see a pod of dolphins it is best to keep your speed to a minimum and no wake allowed within 300 meters of the pod. So please make sure you approach dolphins slowly and with care.
Secondly, Hunting dolphins is not okay. Japan hunts and kills dolphins for food. It is pretty brainless as you will get poisoned by their meat. It contains mercury that is not meant to be eaten. I think that people should stop killing dolphins for their meat because it is harsh and unintelligent.
Finally, when people go fishing their fishing nets go in the dolphins path and they get tangled in it. Imagine getting taggeld and struggling to get out and seeing your whole pod swimming off without you. When they get caught they get stuck because they can’t swim. They can't catch any food. They can’t go up for air. So they struggle and eventually die. This is torture. They are innocent creatures and they deserve to live an enjoyable life.
In conclusion, there is no question that dolphins need to be saved. Their habitats are becoming more crowded by boats, they are hunted in Japan and they are getting tangled in fishnets. We need to think about what we are doing and every move we take. Dolphins are very smart but many are becoming or are already endangered, so we need to act now. The sea and the animals that live in it is one of God’s greatest given gifts so we need to protect the ocean and its creatures.

Teeth
The rippled water was squishing against the old man's dingy. That was floating the peaceful lake. The green trees were pointing up to the misty sky. They looked at each other in silence. There fishing rods were in between them tugging fish at the other end. A cold breeze swished past them. They could hear the water from the lake moving towards the mountains it was peaceful and quiet.

Dolphin Discovery
She is the CEO of Clearwater Marine Aquarium and I was lucky enough to go to work with her. I arrived to work early in the morning before any of the public turned up.
I also got to prepare all the cages and tanks making sure they were nice and clean.
The best part was giving them all their breakfast, giving them a good start to the day. I was able to feed the otters, sea turtles, stingrays, sharks, pelicans and dolphins.
I learnt a lot especially about dolphins.
I hope you like my video.

An octopus does the same.
The green shell on the back of the slug is like a shield for them,
to protect them from rocks and shells. Their antennas are to feel if there is
anything coming their way and to feel the vibrations in the water.
They have camouflage skin. It would be like a green P in a green blanket, you wouldn’t be
able to see it. So the brown sea slug camouflages themselves in the rocks and seaweed so thay
are hard to find.
to see a way around. How they do this is a stick there antennas out and
wiggle them around so they can feel the vibrations in the water.

Easter
‘’Tweet, tweet, tweet’’. The birds were chirping outside my window. My eyes slowly opened, then I realised it was Easter! I leapt out of bed, my Mum and Dad were sitting at the table. I shouted to them ‘It's Easter!’’. My Mum and Dad looked at me. What are you waiting for? Go wake your sister up. I scurried into my sister's room, and shouted Bo! wake up. I ran outside, slipped on my shoes and started looking for the Easter eggs.
Bo was slowly following behind me. I looked into the bush and under the big Bamboo tree and there it was. A big ,brown ,yummy Easter egg, just sitting there. After 5 minutes we found all the eggs. Dad slowly walked down the steps and he said ‘’You ready to roll them?’’. We stumbled over to our next door neighbour's driveway, luckily he wasn't there. We lined up our feet to the top of the driveway. ‘’On your marks, Get set, GO!!!
Bo rolled her egg first, it rolled like a boulder going down a mountain. It reached halfway then it splattered all over the driveway. ‘’AAAAH!’’ Bo Sighed, with disappointment. Then it was my go. I gently pushed my egg down the driveway. It slowly turned onto the grass, then it stopped. ‘’Ha ha, ha ha, mine went the furthest’’. Bragged Bo, annoyingly.

Camo Challenge
I found it hard to stay in position for 10 seconds without moving.
I enjoyed revealing myself at the end, because it was really nice to get some air. I used my mums skirt to climb inside of and this helped me to stretch in and out of position easily.
Next time I would include an object, like my cat, to make it more interesting and give people something else to look at.

Breath
I did this art piece because sometimes you need to stop and breath. At times like this it is important to stop, breathe and take in what you need to. I think we need to remember the good things and be grateful for what we have.
I found it difficult doing the mountain, because I wanted it to be textured and so I used something called Gesso. It is a texture paste and it is very sticky.
I really enjoyed painting the sea, because I liked mixing and blending all of the blues.
Next time I will take more care on the waves, because I think it was a little rushed.
The best part of my painting, which I am most proud of is the face. I think I did a great job at using tone to make her look 3D.
