Inquiry Information Report About Our Orginisim

Hakuna Matata!

In Lockdown,me and my family watch the new movie lion king! It was my second time watching it. When the songs came up, we were all singing it. I really loved it. These are some songs that I liked the most.

Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
It's a problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!

I'm gonna be a mighty king
So enemies beware
Well, I've never seen a king or beast
With quite so little hair
I'm gonna be the main event
Like no king was before
I'm brushing up on looking down
I'm working on my roar
Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
You've rather a long way to go, young master, if you think
No one saying, "do this"
No one saying, "be there"
No one saying, "stop that"
Look, what you don't realize
No one saying, "see here"
Now see here!
Free to run around all day
Well, that's definitely out
Free to do it all my way
I think it's time that you and I
Arranged a heart to heart
Kings don't need advice
From little horn-bills for a start
If this is where the monarchy is headed
Count me out
Out of service, out of Africa
I wouldn't hang about
This child is getting wildly out of wing
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
Everybody look left
Everybody look right
Everywhere you look I'm
Standin' in the spotlight
Not yet!
Let every creature go for broke and sing
Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing
It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
Oh, I just can't wait to be king


( I was going to sing it but nah)

Travis Wetlands Reflection

On Thursday, the 6th of August, 2020, our inquiry group drove to the Travis Wetlands.

We went there to learn about the ecology of the Wetlands as a habitat.

We learnt that 90% of Christchurch was wetlands and now it's only 2% wetlands. I also learnt that without insects, there wouldn't be a wetland because it would of become a swamp. There is lots of beautiful animals and cool insects there like a black swan, waterboat men, Pukeko, Mallard duck, horse, and a paradise duck. I'm so glad that there's lots of cool species in New Zealand.

We got to go bird searching, and insect fishing. My favorite was the bug fishing because I found different types of bugs that I've never seen.

CRT Sphero Ramp

For CRT (Cool Rise Team) we had to create our own ramps for the sphero. In my group, I was working with Sitia and Elouise. 

The challenge was to create our own ramps for the sphero and see how far it can go.

Me and my friends used cardboard, scissors, tape and a pencil to create our ramp. The most challenging part about it was probably trying to make the sphero go up the ramp and not around it. We released when we were starting that we bent the cardboard too much and we had put supports under the ramp to hold it up.

Our sphero went 40cm long! I was sooooo happy but we didn't get to record it sadly:(
