Hi there everybody!
Today is the last day of Enrich for term 3 2012! Luckily, it's been a really good last day! I started the day off with a game of chess. I played against Ella, but we didn't finish our game. After that we did our Key Competency assesments about our contributing and participating in P4C and debating, and our thinking skills. Then we had a break and some morning tea YUM!!!! Passion Time was also a highlight. Ella and I made a really yummy chocolate cake. We sprinkled it with icing sugar and put marshmallows on it. It looks DEVINE!!!
The Wilson game we played today was great fun. It was called Bullseye. We got divided into 4 teams of 7 or 8. We had to try and throw the toys and beanbags into the hoops. There was 4 hoops. If you got something into the closest hop, you got 3 points, the second hoop, 6 points, the third hoop, 9 points, and the farthest hoop, 12 points. Our team won overall.
I can't wait to come back to Enrich next term!

Another Day at Enrich!
Kia Ora everyone!
Today we looked at a video on air pollution. It showed us pictures of the top ten most polluted cities in the world. Did you know that the most polluted city in the world is Ahvaz, which is in Iran. It has 329 micrograms of pollution in the air per cubic meter. That's very unhealthy!!!!! Then we looked at the top ten unpolluted cities in the world. There was lots of European cities on there and a few cities in Canada. Guess what though, the least polluted city in the world is.....................WELLINGTON IN NEW ZEALAND!!!!!!!!!! It has the nickname Windy Wellington for a reason! It is very windy there so it blows all the polluted air away. Now we don't have to worry about breathing in that horrible polluted air.
After lunch we are going to do Passion Time. Sarah, Ella and I are making cakes, fudge, muffins, and cookies to sell at a bake sale. We will donate the money that we make to the World Vision charity. We want to help! Of course, we need to make a reasonable amount of money to donate.
Look at this polluted air! That is in Ahvaz, Iran. In the daytime! There is a car that has to drive with it's lights on, just to see through the dirty air.

Bonjour!
Today the Seaward Bush group went back out to Seaward Bush with Alfredo to check out the traps and wax tags. Unfortunately, most of the wax on the wax tags had been chewed of by some very inquisitive dogs. Although we were very excited when we found a possum hanging in one of the traps we had set up last week! It was a male. We were so excited! Even though it was a bit scary, we all wanted to have a hold of it. Here is a picture of me holding the possum.
It was very interesting to see that some of the traps had no more bait in them but there was nothing caught. There was a trail of chewed up wax along the track. I reckon it was the same dog that was crazy for wax. Oh well, the highlight of the trip was definitely catching the possum!
I might be going back next week. If we do, I hope we catch another possum!
