Kakapo

Kakapo

The Appearance

The kakapo is a flightless, large parrot. It has green and dark brown feathers all over its body. This helps the Kakapo camouflage in the forest, protecting it from predators. They have grey feet and a grey beak. The kakapo is a nocturnal bird which means they sleep during the day, and they hunt at night. The kakapo is one of the heaviest parrots in the world. It weighs 2-4 kgs.

Predators

They are endangered and there are only 154 left in New Zealand. The kakapo is almost extinct. Its predators are cats, stoats, dogs and rats. The rats eat the Kakapo’s eggs. The kakapos were put onto an island with no predators. This keeps them safe and allows them to breed, so we can have more kakapo.

It is important to protect the Kakapo for future generations to see.

Plastic bag story

I saw it fly right across the shop and then it just flew again to the landfill then it flew and flipped it just flew and flew and flew! It went to the road and then the FOREST!!! Then the big beast was out, out of his cave he was out because of that annoying thing. But it was something magical and mysterious. It tickled the big beast and then he was FLYING in the air then he said in a big beast voice. "Why am i flying, wow I just shot a firing flaming ball" "I should name it the flaming ball’ . He did a flip and a loopy loop then he glided he was so impressed by it but then the magic stopped. He got rumbled down to the ground the beast was so mad he was going to smash it but when he smashed it then it said "thanks for the wind" it continued then it went to the sewers in it was icky and yucky then it was to the ocean there was a baby turtle there was another something was STUCK and the baby turtle went in it and Suffocating. Don't be a monster don't let stuff happen to Turtles because if you do you kill turtles and birds.

Recycling

We need to keep New Zealand clean because rubbish is making our environment dirty and N.Z has put 2.5 million tonnes of Rubbish into landfills. We need to recycle and put plastic bottles and boxes in the recycling bin. Birds may eat plastic, sometimes they think that it is food so it eats it. Now turtles are the same as the birds. 90%  of birds have plastic inside them they go into the sea and turtles, sea birds and maybe seagulls I never seen one before eat plastic bags. We are trying to tell you that if you go to the shop we need to buy A plastic bag then go home and when you go to the same shop again you could use the same bag then you don't need to buy plastic bags but if you put your plastic bag in the rubbish bin it miat fall out go to the sea and birds and turtles are going to eat it. But if it doe,s not fall out it will go out in the GROUND!! In the DIRT yes that is bad then if you move out you miat live in the RUBBISH and you would not like that.      

Imagine if ALL THE BIRDS DIED!!!!!!!!  The end We will be doing recycle POSTER!!! some time birds die and turtles because of us as well they die Because plastic goe,s to the ocean Now so that we can help and make them healthy make your own bag but if you don't no how to do that go to the market buy A plastic bag then when you go to the market again you can use the same plastic bag again and some time the rubbish goes far far away and put a landfill.

It was result day. But when it was our turn we crossed our finger so when miss spies called out our name. Miss Spies said to me who is your buddy then I said”  boaza she said back to me is boaza here or not?”  I said yes he is here with me then she said alright set the timer like of and on again OK i said to miss sure but I will let boaza  have it boaza said thank you Jordan miss said to boaza ok now you can set the timer but it is my phone Now like of and on again boaza said sure no problem I put the boat in the water she put the 200 hundred grams on our boat  then it sinked for 2 seconds.
