What is an ecosystem?

Can you think of some different ecosystems?  Do we have one at our school?

In the photo below can you name the plant with the white flowers?  What did you find on the white flowers?

What was found living under the log?  What did Joanna find?

My trip to Quail Island

In the holidays I drove to Lyttelton.  I got on the boat with my family.  My Mum wanted to go on the boat because she had never been on it before.

I walked around the whole island for two hours.  We had ham buns for lunch.  We saw old dog kennels and I went inside.  It smelt like hay.  I saw crabs and some Quail birds.

It was so much fun at Quail Island.  I felt sad when we left.  We  drove back and went through the big tunnel.  I  loved it, it was my favorite day ever. I hope I go back maybe soon...

My holidays...

I went to Kaiteriteri and I went swimming at the beach.  Then I went to a river and I went walking.  I went to Blenheim and I made a fossil dinosaur.  My Mum bought it for me and you had to dig to find the bones.
