Aboriginal Culture

In Kotuku class we read a book about a girl who was half Aborigine and half white. One day she got stolen by the Chief Protector and  taken to a children's home and she lost some stuff from her culture. Some things that she lost were fishing and swimming in a stream, sitting by a fire and her dress that her mum made for her. One day she woke up before anyone else and went up and got the key then she took her first steps towords home.

Animal Cinquain Poems

                            

                                                           Snow leopard

                                                          Stripy, fierce

                                           Leaping, furry, cute 

                                         Playfully pouncing on her brother

                                                         Grrrrrrr!

                                                Orangutan

                                            Hairy, brown

                                    Furry, happy, lazy 

                            Swinging and protecting their babies

                                        Ooo aaa!

                                                          Wolf

                                              Scary, fierce

                                    Hunting, glaring, chasing

                                        Listening from the distance

                                                   Howl!

Zoo Trip

At  the zoo we listened to the tiger talk.

We learnt that the tiger had something wrong with his throat. The tube that goes down to his tummy is a  bit blocked so he has two have small cut up meat about the size of a parents hand. There was another  tiger coming in a week.
