8 Facts about Space

Space Narrative



It is 4017, Makayla and her personal buddy Greg the talking monkey are on a mission to look for a planet for the people of earth to live on. They have to find a planet because earth is dying and they need a new home. They have been flying for three weeks and they haven’t got any luck, what are they going to do?

Suddenly they found the planet they were looking for. They started to explore the planet to see if it was safe for their people. But then they saw some dangerous obstacles that they had to try and get through. So her and Greg decided that they have to try and make these obstacles less dangerous and more safe for families. So they were trying to think of an idea to make the obstacles easier and less dangerous for families and also little ones.

“Greg what are we going to do? These obstacles are way too dangerous for all the families” said Makayla. Suddenly Greg came up with a great idea. “We should try and find the best way around to make the trail more easier to pass” he said, “I don’t know Greg what if there is no more ways what if they are more dangerous” Said Makayla. “What if we try and chop down the obstacles, like we can chop down the spiky tree branches, we could make a path, or we can make our own way to the other side” she said. “YYEEAAHH we should find another way around” said Greg.

So Makayla and Greg walked around to look for another way around this small river. “Hey Makayla there is another path over there” pointed Greg, “oh yes I can see it, let’s go over there” said Makayla. So they went and ran to the other path. “This path is great, it’s not dangerous, it’s stable and more safer for families and there are no aliens here” said Greg. “Let’s go back home and tell the boss that we’ve found the right planet” said Makayla, “yeah your right, wait hang on what’s this planet called?” asked Greg. “Oh it’s called Makomi” replied Makayla. “Cool let’s go tell the boss” said Greg.

Makayla and Greg have landed on earth again. “Hello boss we have found a great planet, it is called Makomi” said Greg. “Ohh that’s great we’ll call all the presidents and the prime ministers to evacuate all their country to America for free. They can just use the planes without any fair tickets. Few days later, “ok everyone we will be moving to a safer planet named Makomi. You will be guided to the planet in a rocket ship, then we will take you to your new houses. But the houses aren’t flash because we are still trying to build the houses.

To keep my neighborhood clean I would do...

2: I'd go around the neighborhood every morning and evening and put up posters saying Keep NZ clean and stop LITTERING. So that it will encourage people to keep NZ clean and try to start picking up rubbish and stop littering.

3: I'd go around the neighborhood  picking up rubbish and also make a protest to make a cleaning NZ group.

WLJ Activity 2 Day 5


This is my DLO about my chosen person that was famous in NZ.

WLJ Activity 1 Day 5

"OH NO they've left me!!!" I was all alone in the Lewis Pass Scenic Reserve. "What am I going to do" I thought. I thought that I should try and keep walking to see if I find them stopped looking at a fascinating thing. I kept on walking and walking but I didn't seem to find my group. I decided that I should walk back to reception to ask to make a call out for my group to stop where they are and tell us where they are with the tour guide's walky talkie. They did a call out but it had seemed that my group had already left the reserve. I'm like "WWHHAATT". How am I supposed to get back to them I don't have any money. But then our tour guide took me back to my group at Nelson.

WLJ Bonus Activity Day 4

I think that fisherman should be banned from fishing at Farewell Spit. I think this because they have been killing our native hector's dolphins and every year there's been hectors dolphins getting killed. I think that that is not good because the hector's dolphin's are native and if they are getting killed every year then soon in the future they will be extincted.

What the people of Picton had to do was, they had to drape drape t-shirts, towels and sarongs over the beached whales. They also had to try and use pots,bowls and more to carry water and drape it over the beached whales. There were also two people who had noticed it at first and that was a lady and a German tourist, the German tourist noticed it and rang the department of conversations then the news reporters.

WLJ Activity 2 Day 3

I think that New Zealand should be predator free. I think this because innocent farmers have to pay about $35 million dollars a year because of the possum damage. I also think that possums should go back to their natural home where they belong so that they don't cause trouble here in New Zealand. I also think that they shouldn't be in New Zealand because they have been causing a lot of trouble so if they are gone and New Zealand is predator free then there won't be any predator trouble for the government to fix.

WLJ Activity 1 Day 3

The animal to adopt that I have chosen is a Kea. A Kea is a apart of the family Strigopidae, it's scientific name is Nestor notabilis. It is found in forested and alpine regions of the South Island of the New Zealand. They are about 48cm (19 in) long. Most of the Kea is olive-green with a brilliant orange under it's wings. It has large, narrow and curved grey-brown upper beak, and did you know the Kea is the worlds only alpine parrot. The Kea's omnivorous diet includes carrion, but it mostly includes roots, leaves, berries, nectar and insects.

The Kea nests in burrows or crevices among the roots of the tree. I have chosen the Kea because they are mostly known for their intelligence and curiosity, both vital to their survival in a harsh mountain environment. Like did you know that the Kea can solve logical puzzles such as pushing and pulling things in a certain order to get to food, and will work together to archive a certain objective.

Image result for karekare beach sunset
I liked visiting Karekare Beach because I liked that the sand was different to Mission Bay's sand, so it looked really appealing and different to see. I also liked the scenery of the sunset because it made the beach look so relaxing and it would be nice to take a long stroll. I also liked the tempreture of the water there when I visited the beach it was so nice and cooling.

WLJ Activity 1 day 1

One interesting fact that I learnt was...

  • Most kiwi's are discovering a lot of unusual things and then using it to invent their own thing. E.g Electric fences.

  • That maori people voyaged across the sea in their waka's, and now that's the identity of New Zealand. Because they voyaged across the sea and found NZ.

  • New Zealand's European pioneers were brave, rugged and independent. But before they could build farms and community's they had to clear the land, A painstaking and also a dangerous activity. Their isolation and exposure to the elements forced the early New Zealanders to become hardy and multi-skilled.
