Super Sand Dunes

At the beach we had lots of fun and we learnt about sand dunes. We put on some plants and shells. We also learnt how to protect the sand dunes. We need walkways so people won't damage the plants. We learnt about the plants they were called ice plants and Marram grass they are there to protect the dunes and they are good for the animals and insects. Sand dunes are good because they protect houses and roads from getting all sand in them and breaking down. Everyone enjoyed going to the beach and we learnt a lot about sand dunes.

We went on the internet and saw the All Blacks singing the same song.

Worm Juice


This year it is our job to get the worm juice. We give the worm juice to adults. We sell it for $5. There is dark juice and light juice. The juice is good for the plants, for the ground, the grass and I think it is good for the worms too.
