Whanaungatanga expereience

Whanaungatanga
Experience
Introduction
During this whanaungatanga experience on week 7, all the year 7 and 8 students had the experience of two days of fun,the purpose of these 2 days were all about having fun and building relationships with others, We went to polyfest and the pools. We also had a sleepover when we came back. I never went to the sleepover, I just stayed home, but I watched all of the photos and videos from the sleepover.  


On the 17th and 18th of february I went to polyfest and to the pools. At polyfest I really enjoyed going to polyfest because I got to look at all of the different cultures and I got to taste all the different food. And I got to go on newshub with all my classmates                      
I enjoyed this because I was so hungry when we got there, and I saw all of the food and it all looked very delicious. I also drank a watermelon sundae with ice cream. The highlight of this time was when I got to see some of my friends that I saw, that weren't from my school.

I really had fun at the whanaungatanga experience, But I didn't go to the sleepover, so I just stayed home and waited for tomorrow. The next day I went to school and I got ready to go to the pools, Miss Aireen told me that I could go with her in her car, and I could help with doing the sausage sizzles and take photos of everyone. I felt a little bit bored because I didn't get to swim, but I had a really good friend to play with, I had my friend jose to play with, I also played with akanesi and constance. I also got to sit with aletheia and talk to her while we watched them play in the water, so I had heaps of company while I was watching everyone have fun.

The secret life of estuaries

The secret life of estuaries

The main idea of this text is to tell you that an estuary is the tidal mouth of very large river, where the tide meets the stream. One example of a supporting detail is that estuaries are known by many different names such as bays, sounds, inlets, harbours, and sloughs. Not all bodies of water with these names are estuaries. They must feature the mixing of fresh and salt water to be a true estuary. Another example of a supporting detail is that estuaries are vital habitats for thousands of marine species. Estuaries have been called the “nurseries of the sea” because the protected environment and the great food provide an ideal location of fish and shellfish to reproduce. Finally, it is clear that the main idea is talking about the estuary and how it works.


Walt: Identify the main idea of the text
Success criteria:
1. I will Identify the big message of the text
2. I will be able to find clues and evidence to help me determine the idea.
