Hiwi the Kiwi

Today we had a visit from Hiwi the Kiwi. We learned about how we can look after our ocean (moana), be safe around the ocean and take care of sea birds.

These are some of the things we learned:

1. it is important to wear life jackets and WE MUST TEACH the men in our families to wear them.
2. if you catch a big fish you should put it back to make sure they are able to breed (lay their eggs)
3. if you catch a small fish (under 30cm) you should put it back
4. when you catch a fish hold it with a wet towel
5. as soon as you catch fish put it on salt ice (it last longer)
6. scare the birds away so they don't get hooked
7. if you see plastic in the water, pick it up so birds don't eat it

Well done to Cleo and Murat who also won some prizes.
