The Abandoned city

As I walk through the emerald green wild bush I hunted a deer it ran as fast as lightning.

The deer lead me too deep into the wild colourful bush

I seen a huge stone grey dingy building covered in moss vines and mold. I got closer to the old building

It lead me to a lot more buildings and even more it was an abandoned city. I was amazed i said to
myself I have never seen anything so amazing!
I ran into what looked like the city center it was like a hole new

World!

I took my time walking into one of the huge dirty old buildings there were three levels the rooms were
covered in moss and old wallpaper. i touched the old bumpy rippling wall and suddenly BANG!
CRASH! The wall tumbled to the ground. The rocky mist covered my eyes  I could not see I made my
way out through a window i could not see the door i was so scared i would get squished.
Their it went again BANG CRASH the three story building went crashing and tumbling just from a
gentle touch! With rock flying everywhere like a meteor shower I moved away from the tumbling
dirty building i knew not to touch the buildings any more. Their was still plenty more buildings like
churches and old shops also houses and workplaces. I walked to the dark dirty church i could smell
old fish but no they were dead people on the disgusting moldy ground they had fallen down the
squeaky floorboards i was shocked at the sight of dead people and the smell of fish! I ran back
home to my family and I kept the whole city a secret from that day on i keeped having more adventure
at the city.

     

The morpork is a well known native New zealand bird. They are nocturnal birds. They are an owl and their colours are mainly a mixture of brown, black, and they have white spots on the feathers.

Their habitats are tree hollows and caves. Sometimes they are spotted at nighttime around street lights. The reason why the are called morpork is because when the Europeans came to New Zealand the found that there was a bird shouting morpork. So they named the bird morpork and when the Māori came they named the bird

ruru.

They are known for being really good hunters. The main food they eat is weta, moths and other small insects. One reason they are good at hunting is because they can fly without making a sound because they have soft edges on their wings so they can creep up on their prey.

Morpork are also known for excellent eyesight and hearing. They can hear other animals  from kilometers away. One ear is a tiny bit higher than the other which helps them track where the noise is coming from a lot easier than say a tui.These birds are very intelligent and amazing!       By Nevey

Reducing Our Plastic Waste

In room seven we have been doing our topic around reducing plastic waste. So we made beeswax wrap instead of glad wrap and also material bags.

Ingredients for beeswax wrap and how to make it.

-baking paper
-fabric
-beeswax
-tray
iron     

First you lay the baking paper on the tray.Then you  grate the beeswax. Then put the fabric on the baking paper. Put the grated beeswax on the fabric and get another piece of baking paper and put it over top and iron until it is melted and spread around. Carefully peel the baking paper off and hang up the beeswax wrap to dry for 30 seconds and it is done.

For the material bags we cut  out our patterns and sewed it together. I enjoyed making them.
