Our Trip To Orana wild life park



On Monday the seventh of August the year seven and eight student were given the option to go on a school trip to Orana wild life park,As they got sponsored by the warehouse and were given 80 thousand one hundred and fifth nine dollars that paid for all of us to get in.

Inside  we got the opportunity  to see the gorilla,tiger,lion,rhinos,cheetahs,mice,kea also kiwi and we got to feed giraffes.

We had a Orana school teacher that took us around the park,Her name was Elizabeth and she was really nice.
Firstly she showed us the rhinos,Elizabeth really couldn't under stand why people kill these endangered animals for their horns as it is just the same thing as what our figure nails are mad of .

Next we walk around and saw cheetahs also saw them walking a round.
Did you know cheetahs are the fastest land animals and use that to catch their pray,but once they run really fast they normally get tired and fall asleep and get kill by one of their predators.

Another thing we did was watch real life gorilla we sat down low so they wouldn't get scared But the oldest one and most powerful scare the two youngest and they ran outside 


Thank you for reading my blog post about Orana park if you liked it please comment.

Business & Enterprise

On the 5th of July 2017, We had our market day.
My group Name was Pukana and had the following People in it Meadow Hauraki, Hinepukohurangi Millier, Kyra-lee Westland  and I.

Our first idea was to do Kawakawa balm, Slime and fried bread but we really soon realsied that we were gonna spend way more then we actually had.So we drooped the idea of slime  And had  the idea to do something that wouldn't cost anything but time so we came up with, flax flowers.

We needed away to get container and beeswax with spending 100 that we didn't have.

So we started to ask for sponsors we first asked Mountain Valley the Lotus oil sale the Bees are us and New world. Here is my letter to Lotus oil sale

We are learning to create a positive digital footprint.

We often share personal information when we are online. The people we share with could be our friends and family or people we don't know. We need to make smart decisions about what personal information we share online.
