Winter Learning journey Activity 2


Maori tradition is that only men is a allowed to be chief of the Maori tribe, however this new generation of tradition is upset. The young boy that was expose to be chief just died at birth, however his twin sister pai survived. At 12 this young fearless girl asks her grandmother for help and also from the help of her uncle Roa. She thought that the 2 of them can help her claim her right to be chief. To become chief she will have to prove to her grandfather how tough she is, how she has the passion of leadership, and also that she will be an amazing chief to lead her people. Her grandfather is hard to convince it will take 1 in a million to impress him because he is still gonna go with tradition which is only men can lead the Maori tribe.
I rate this movie a 4 out of 5

Day #4: Swimming with the Sharks


What happened at Farewell Spit?

300 whales got themselves beached unto shore, unfortunately numerous of hard work and time that the people put effort into the whales died. 

Nearly the whole day kiwi's run back and forth with buckets of sea water to put on the whales so they won't get dry and suffocate. 

Unfortunately not all of them survived, only some of them made it back to the deep blue sea.

I definitely agree that we should hunt down these possums from killing our native trees. About 1911 the government allowed the farmers to hunt down the possums because of their damage that they have done to the crops and the orchards. However, they were still protected in the native forest areas. 

Not only they are ruining and damaging our crops they are also eating Native birds eggs. This is unsafe for the Native animals and also for the community. Native animals provide so many things for our country but we can't just let these possums come in and ruin everything for us I mean come on. We should clear the air and have no possums to harm the Native animals and our Native trees

Our Native Trees and Native animals are important. Lets stop this from happening in New Zealand.

Day #3: Activity1 Wild Eyes

I decided to Adopt a Great spotted kiwi

The reason why I decided to adopt a Great spotted kiwi is because they are one of the most known birds in New Zealand and Native. Kiwis are all flightless birds native to the jungles and the forests of New Zealand. Kiwi's have a highly developed sense of smell, however kiwis are the only creatures that have nostrils at the end of their becks. Kiwis like to eat seeds, grubs and numerous of worms. They also may eat fruit, small crayfish, eels, and amphibians. These creatures mostly live in the northern half of the south island They are found almost as far as Grey mouth, Arthur's Pass and North Canterbury. These creatures are amazing.
