ADRENALIN PARK

Yesterday we went to adrenalin park and it was a 1 hour and 42 minute drive. I Went with Hannah, Alicia, Amiria and Molly. On the way there we stopped in Kawakawa and Hannah and Alicia got a coffee and Amiria Molly and Amiria got hot chocolate and I got juice.

 

 When we got there we raced to get our togs on and me and Amiria shared a toilet to get changed in. After that  we went and got our life jackets. They were so tight I could hardly breathe. While we were waiting for the bus to arrive we had some morning tea. When the bus finally arrived everyone got changed and then the life guards at adrenalin park gave us a safety briefing. Then we were allowed to hop in the water.

 

It was so much fun playing on the giant inflatables for hours. Also Gracie slipped on my face when we were getting up. Everon in the hamtser wheel was falling on everyone. We jumped and slid of the big tower together When it was over everyone was moaning and groaning. After that we had some lunch.

 

On the way back we played the ABC game and a ship came into the harbour. We stopped in Kawakawa to get some petrol. We also had some “travel lollies” Then Hannah dropped me off at school and my mum took me home.

Most people liked other types of candy.

Lollipops and MnMs were the least favorite candy.

gummybears and candyfloss are the same.

KELP

Did you know seaweed is actually algae! Also it is the fastest growing forest in new zealand. seagull poo is the fertiliser for the kelp. Riley ( from young ocean explorers) showed us two types of  kelp bull kelp and giant kelp. Bull kelp is thickand wide, Giant kelp is skinny and wavy.

If kina gets to over populated then there won’t be enough seaweed. Also climate change  can effect the population of seaweed and it will decrease. Overseas species will also effect the population of seaweed. 70% of the oxegen we breath comes from ocean plants.

snorkling at piapia

I smelt the salty, crisp air as I walked along the cold, damp sand in my flippers. My strangling wetsuit was annoying me as I waited with my friends Gracie, Amiria and Indigo. 

 

We had to get into groups with one adult and four kids, our adult was Jocelyn. As we went into the frosty water Gracie kept squealing. Then we went into the water and dived under the water. 

 

“What can you see? ” Jocelyn asked me. “Nothing, Except your flippers” I replied.

 

 As we got deeper into the water we started going over to a little crevasse in the rocks as we were coming out I spotted a red sea sponge. I said to my friend “come over here. Look what I found!” “wow!”  Amiria remarked.   

 

As we went back into the shallow water  we saw Cooper. He wanted to show us two triple-fin. “Wow!” I said.   

 

Then we got out and got changed and had some food. 

 

After that I went for a walk with Molly, Ari, Indigo, Deziah and Jocelyn. 

 

Soon it was time to go back to school. On the bus we watched moana.
