SLJ Concluding The Journey Activity 3 Day 5 Week 4

Hi everyone this is the very last activity on SLJ yay. So here is what I need to do. I am going to list four particular things about what I have learnt and all of that stuff so here we go.
1. What is one thing that you learned from participating in the Summer Learning Programme this year?
That there are only 63 Maui Dolphins left in the planet lots of it because fishers catch them sometimes on accident.
2. What is one thing that surprised you?
That air pollution is mostly caused by many different things.
3. What is one thing that concerns you or made you upset?
That lots of amazing birds are endangered and at high risk.
4. What is one thing that you (or your family) can do, moving forward, to help protect our natural environment?
To help protect our natural environment my family and me can not give kauri die-back to trees because there is already Mound Building Termites.

Thank you Jordan and your team for creating this awesome Programme. I thank you because you have created some thing cool and something to do when I stay home, taking your time to actually look at each students work and helping us learn in a fun and in our own kind of way.

    Well done for finishing the Summer Learning Journey programme— I am so, SO incredibly proud of you!!
    You've persevered throughout the entire summer and really taken your time to respond to each activity, and I respect this. Well done, I hope that you're just as proud of yourself!

    I'm happy to hear that you've learned more about the environment, including the 63 Māui dolphins— it's unfortunate that set netting catches Māui dolphins, isn't it? We need to encourage our government to ban set netting on the West coast of the North Island so that the Māui dolphin's habitat is protected and conserved.

    I went hiking last weekend just outside of the Waitakere ranges. Did you know that there is a rāhui (tapu restriction) over the Waitakere ranges at the moment in an attempt to control Kauri dieback? Dieback is actually a fungus that is spread through the soil and attacks the root system of trees. This spreads through to the trunk and slowly kills the tree. Really unfortunate— however the DOC are doing all that they can to control this fungi, and we can help by making sure that our shoes are very clean before we enter any forest that may have Kauri within it.

    Thank you for your sweet, personal message— you are totally welcome! I am so happy that you've enjoyed this programme and I hope that it's helped to maintain (if not increase) your literacy skills over the summer holidays.
    I look forward to seeing you when I come in to Papakura Central School next week! Until then, keep up the great work in everything that you do, Taya.

    Proud of you!

    Jordan
