Petone Beach

Today Kowhai syndicate went to Petone Beach to clean up all the rubbish.  First we listen to Miss Postma explain the rules of our trip and then we ate our lunch.  Next it was time for us to start our activities.  We started on the playground and got to make some kites.  After that we went down to the beach to do a scavenger hunt.  We had to some shells, wood and all sorts of different things.  "It was fun" said Sophie.  Next we went to see Miss Postma and helped her clean up all the rubbish from around the beach.  We found heaps of rubbish!  Sam and Zion found a big hole full of rubbish! We felt sad that the rubbish was on the beach but very proud of ourselves for picking it up.  Finally it was time for the last activity we made some very impressive sandcastles with Mrs Renfrew.  Before we went back to school we had a yummy lemonade ice block.  What a great day!
