On tuesday we had a company come and they were called blake.they came to talk about the ocean and whats good for it. they came to talk about it because we are learning about water ways.so we got to go on VRs and see what it was like being at the bottom of the ocean.it was really fun/cool. it was really images and videos.because a man went under water to film these videos. it was really cool.they talked about sea urchins aka kina.and they said stuff that is good and not good for the ocean. heres some stuff we learnt. tip 1: never ever litter and put rubbish in the water because its bad for sea animals like:turtles fish and much more. tip 2:when fishing dont take to much fish because if theres no fish its impossible to have a healthy ocean without fish. and heres a random fact:the ocean covers 71% of the earths surface. anyways when we went on the VRs we saw stingrays,heaps of different kinds of fish,sharks.then we got to visit the mountions and we were flying over the sea (on VR) and we went to see penguins and birds it was cool. then we saw seals and a bunch of baby penguins it was so cute. it was also really cool because the videos were real. my class my friends and i had lots of fun.
