Class adventure term 2


Last Friday we went on an adventure up View Mount Street! 

We went to investigate the big slip that happened in December. We remembered that planting trees helps to protect the hills and keep them safe during heavy rains. We saw what changes happened to the hillside that didn't have enough trees on it.

Skyping Sophia

We skyped Sophia in Bali. She was a bit shy and we were a bit over excited! We hope she comes back soon because we miss her. We asked her some questions. She lives near a volcano and we wanted to know about it. Sophia's school doesn't have any walls. The time in Bali was 9 in the morning. It was 1 o'clock here.
