Something In The Water - He Mea I Roto I Te Wai Immersion Assembly

On July the 22nd the start of term 3 school started. The topic for Term 3 is there's something in the water or He mea i roto i te wai. It was all about the sorts of creature that is in the sea. During assembly, Mr Burt, Mrs Tele’a, Mr Somerville, and Ms Va’afusuaga, where cooking seafood. Instead of getting a sticker like normal they gave our prawns and other seafood stuff.

First up wasTeam 1 that presented a video about S.O.F.A which stands for solutions for animals. First S.O.F.A got a call from somebody, saying they were worried about the sea creatures or sea animals at the Pt England Reserve. So S.O.F.A got into their

 car and technically flew to the Pt England Reserve. Soon S.O.F.A arrived at the reserve and drove into the water. They spotted sea animals like dolphins, stingrays, fish, whales, and jellyfish.

Second was Team 2 , Ms Telso, Miss Moran, Mrs Carter and Ms Gaston presented a video of them. The video was about how they walked all the way down to Tahuna Torea Reserve. They fed the ducks on the grass then they followed a path and carried on walking. As they were walking they used there magnifying glass and looked around. Soon they came to pass a giant Pohutukawa tree, they had a look at the tree and carried on walking. A few minutes later they walked to the beach and started looking at the shells and rock pools.

Next was Team 3 presented there video it was all about a girl who was tired of keeping the moana and awa nice and clean. So she went on a journey to see who could help her. After a while along came sea creatures who asked to help her but she said no for very good reasons. There was more in the video but that's all I have to say. What the video is trying to say is keep our seas and rivers clean as it could become polluted and the world and become a different place.

Then Team 4 who also presented a video at assembly. In the video they went down to the Pt England Reserve. They talked about plankton, muscles, crabs, and seagulls. Ms Parrant also explained, what all these sea creatures eat. The muscles eat the plankton the crabs eat the muscles and the seagulls eat the crabs but what eats the seagulls. 

Lucky last Team 5 ( the best team ) always does a life stream. The Team 5 teachers sang a song on what the meaning of Cells are and all that sort of stuff. BTW there song was so amazing it was so catchy and a very heart bumping song. Here at Team 5 our team main focus is on science, because in college that is a subject and we have to know as much as we could to make life easier.
