Today we had a man called Grant in to talk to us about an environmental organization called Sea Shepherd.They save whales , penguins , seals and other endangered species.He showed us a slideshow about how his team were saving the species especially whales.They had to chase after some Japanese ships which were trying to catch whales, so Sea Shepherd threw stink bombs at them to slow the Japanese down.The gas from the stink bombs meant they couldn't eat the meat but they could still do scientific research on it.

Today at Enrich we did our must dos and picks.

                                                                                               

I have finished the affective workshop about Adora Svitak, (a 12-year old girl from America who published her first book when she was 6, and now speaks in front of HEAPS of adults), the charcoal landscapes which was an art activity, and the where in the world. The where in the world is when you have to follow clues to find henry the tuatara.

I have just started the landscape design.The landscape design is when you create your a garden for a certain group of people. I haven't done debating yet:) Happy halloween!  Follow this cool link for something spooky!

Today at Enrich we played a new game called 'All or Nothing'. This game is for 2 or more people. What you have to do is get 4 hoops and 1 basket and 1 small beanbag and place the hoops in a line in front of you, place the basket inside the first hoop then move back a fair distance and try to throw the beanbag in the basket.If you get it in move the basket to the second hoop and stand behind the hoop the the basket is in and throw the beanbag to the next person then move to the back of the line. If they don't catch it move the basket back to the first hoop and start again keep going like that until you get it into the forth hoop and throw it back to the other person, but make sure they catch it.

Today we practiced our proposal to show the people at the council chambers our ideas for Wachner Place. We are doing the Garden Me Isabella , Miro ,AJ and John are in a group:) Next week we are going to the council chambers eeeeeekkkkkk! I hope it goes ok:)until next time bye.

Today we did our Environment projects. Isabella and I wrote down what I'm going to say to Diacks nursery when we ring up to ask how much each plant costs. We also put together a keynote to present to  the city council to see if we can repair the gardens at Wachner Place. We really hope we can prepare for the presentation in time. Wish us luck:)
