Sustainable Energy Talk

Two weeks ago a lady came from Vector to our school to teach us about the sustainable energy. So she talked about renewable energy like solar energy,water energy and wind energy.

Two boys used light from the lamp to make the helicopter fan go spinning 

around. It went really slow then it went faster.This was solar energy. We get solar energy from the sun.

After that, we went outside and she showed us a solar powered car. The vector lady put down the solar powered car and the sun reflected on the car and it started moving. After that the vector lady gave us a sustainable energy booklet to use. 

We need to be careful with energy because we can't live without it.

Year 7 Trip to the Zoo

On Tuesday 23rd August we went to the zoo trip with rooms 2,27,11 and 13 on a bus. We went there to learn about sustainability and we went to the central lawn. Then we had to go and look around.

First we saw the red panda- it liked to play and it was climbing and hiding. Next we got to watch the meerkats and they were so cute. Some of them were sleeping and some were staring at us. Then we got to look at the orangutans. They were huge and furry.

So my favourite animals are the red pandas and the orangutans and meerkats. I learned about the animals habitats and how they can survive by not chopping down the forests and the jungles.

 In New Zealand we have to protect the kiwis by making them safe from the predators like wild cats and dogs.
