Taking Flight 


Activity 1 (Bird Of The Year ) Pukeko
The pukeko is one of the most notified birds due to its bold colours on its feathers. The pukeko is generally found in marshy roadsides and low lying country, but it can be found in swamps, lagoons, reeds and rushes. These birds are around 51 cm long. They are mostly vegetarian but they also eat, invertebrates, eggs, frogs, small fish, chicks & mammals. Pukekos can be territorial and aggressive.

Activity 2 ( Flying Fox ) 
In this activity, we have to tell you what superpower would I like and why?

I would like to be able to shapeshift. I chose this superpower because you can turn into anything and any moment and no one would notice, and it seems exciting.

🌬️ The Air Up There 🌬️

Activity 1 ( Bee Informed )
Unbee-livable Facts about Bumblebees


The word ‘bumblebee’ is a compound word (bumble + bee). The word ‘bumble’ means to hum, buzz or move flounderingly.

Bumblebees can fly very quickly. They can reach ground speeds of _54_ kilometres per hour (km/h).


Bumblebees can do more work and carry more pollen than other bees, including honeybees. In fact, they can do up to 50 times as much work as a normal honeybee.

The number of bumblebees is declining in New Zealand due to a number of factors, including the wildflowers & Flowering Trees.

✨ Summer Learning Journey - Day 1 - Week 3 ✨

🔥 A Heated Debate 🔥

Activity 1 ( Togs Or Trackies )

Image result for summer in nz
I think the best time to visit New Zealand is in the summer because you get the most out of the sun. These are some activities you can do in the summer: 

- You can swim at the beach.
- You can walk in the native forests
- You can fish 
- You can kayak.
- And many other things........

Activity 2 ( You Are My Sunshine )

Ways to stay sun smart in summer:

1. Most importantly apply sunscreen
2. Wear a hat 
3. Wear sunglasses
4.  Sit under a shady area
5. Put on a shirt

Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek & Slide

🗑️ Summer Learning Journey - Day 5 - Week 2 🗑️

🗑️ Wasting Away 🗑️

🎣 Activity 1 ( Off The Menu )🎣

Image result for people fishing

I think it is fair that people should be forced to pay a fine for fishing in overfished areas. I think this because since that area has been overfished, rarely any fish will be caught and some might be breeding and fishing will disturb them. I think people should be paid a fine but not a high as 100,000. Somewhere between 50,000 to 80,000.



🌊Activity 2 ( The Black Drain ) 🌊

Polluted Rivers In NZ.

Waikirikiri River 
This river is located in Selwyn, Canterbury.

There are no statements saying how they are going to stop pollution in the river but the Green party is solving the issue.

Ruamahanga River
South Eastern North Island

Local Communities and farmers are helping restore its health.

🎆 Summer Learning Journey - Day 4 - Week 2 🎆

🎆 Spectacular, Spectacular 🎆

Activity 1 ( Planes, Trains & Automobiles )
In this activity, we have to write about which transport we will take to Milford Sound and why?
Image result for milford sound#

We were given an option to travel to Milford Sound through boat, helicopter or by foot. If I was to travel to Milford Sound I would choose a helicopter because of the scenery. Travelling in the air is usually more exciting than by boat or foot. Plus it would be my first time on a helicopter.
