We Should learn to Control pests so It Doesn’t hurt or harm any animals to kill and survive.

Some animals that are harmed by pests can’t defend themselves,like Possums,Stoats,Rats and feral cats.

We were told that if you give Pests lots of Food and lots of water they get Stronger, Possums,get ready to hunt other animals,to kill and eat,that’s why,we use traps to kill Possums and see how much damage Pests do. Chris told us how we can tell when the pests are there because they have already been there.

We had a quick Morning Tea,and Got on the bus to Cornwall Park.When we Arrived there Mr Bell split us into two groups,after everyone was into groups,we were looking at a map to see what kind of trees we can find.When Chris showed us were the Trees were,we found shade so we can put our mat so we can put our bag on it.

 

When everyone was organised,the opposite group went with Chris and my group went with two lady’s,Lisa and Charlie.Lisa and Charlie asked us questions on what we found in the trees,and we found tracking tunnels,Weta hotels.We saw chairs that were mad with wood and Trees that were familiar to the ones we saw on the map.Our group went for a tree walk and look at the trees,and found webs all over the trees.

 

Lisa and Charlie and the whole group,checked at the traps to see if any possums,rats,cats,had already been there.When we have arrived at our mat,we saw the other group,ready to swap over,When the other group went with Lisa and Charlie,it was our turn to go with Chris,he walked around a path and saw a lot of cows and Sheeps.

Hadrian’s Wall was the north-west frontier of the Roman empire for nearly 300 years.The building of Hadrian’s Wall probably began that year, and took at least six years to complete . The original plan was for a wall of stone or turf, with a guarded gate every mile and two observation towers in between, and fronted by a wide, deep ditch.Hadrian’s Wall was 80 Roman miles or 117.5 km (73.0 mi) long; its width and height varied according to the construction materials available nearby.Hadrian’s Wall was 80 Roman miles or 117.5 km (73.0 mi) long; its width and height varied according to the construction materials available nearby.

 Hadrian’s Wall is best known for his literary pursuits, his substantial building projects throughout the Roman Empire, and, especially, Hadrian’s Wall in northern Britain. It’s the best known and the best preserved frontier of the Roman Empire. When Hadrian’s men set out to construct it they were faced with a relentlessly challenging and variable landscape to conquer.

Stonehenge is a famous landmark which is located in Wiltshire, England. It is believed that it was built about 4000 years ago. Stonehenge began about 5,000 years ago as a simple earthwork enclosure where prehistoric people buried their cremated dead.Some of the stones were brought from nearly 200 miles away. Scientists think that the stones were a way to tell the time of year and that nobody knows for sure how the stones were moved to Stonehenge.

The small and large rocks form a circle and it is believed that at certain times of the year the stars and sun line up with parts of the circle.Another theory is that the Irish sea Glacier brought the stones close to Stonehenge. Stonehenge is perhaps the world’s most famous prehistoric monument that was built  built about 5,000 years ago, and the unique stone circle was erected in the late Neolithic period about 2500 BC.

 

On Monday my classmates and I did a EPro8 challenge. Before we get to build our crane we had to split up in to groups and own a booklet each.We had to test a crane, bridge, caveman car. First we needed to do was to learn how to use the blue and red joiners and watch a tutorial of how to use it. For our crane we had to red the instructions  in our booklets so we know how to build it.After we finished building our crane we built a bridge.we had to measure it and see how long is the bridge. It had to be 1.8m long and we had to put a long roof so that the car can go through,Then we record it and made a car.It was hard to make but I really enjoyed it.Next we built a caveman car it was pretty hard to build it because we needed to add rubber bands to it so it can go by its self. Everyone finished and we had a race and 3 rounds.It took us 2 days  to finish building a crane, a bridge and a caveman car.
