Surfing Safety

 Water Safety

WALT: We are learning to show a positive attitude by

Demonstrating willingness to accept challenges, learn new skills and strategies, and extend our abilities in movement-related activities.

What your worries are: 

One worry for me is if a shark comes up to me. 

If there's a current and you get pulled into the water.

There is a risk of getting stung by a jellyfish.

When you're surfing, make sure you don't go near sharp rocks and cliffs or anything that will hurt you. If you see a jellyfish or any type of sea creature tell someone.

The questions that we have when we go surfing.

What if there are sharks or jellyfish around you.

Swim between the red and yellow flags

Have a good look before you enter the water to see if there is a rip. If there is a rip swim somewhere else. 

How to spot a rip in the water

• If there is black water

• If you see sand going out to sea 

• If there are no waves in one spot 

The Treaty Of Waitangi

    The Treaty Of Waitangi 

 

We are learning to understand how and why individuals and groups pass on and keep alive their culture and heritage.

First we read an article about the Treaty of Waitangi, then we answered questions about the Treaty. We made our own treaty about the class rules and we signed it with a fern pen with a quill nib. Also we marked the places where the Treaty of Waitangi was signed in New Zealand. 

We learnt about this so we can know more about the reasons why Māori and the British (Crown) signed the Treaty of Waitangi. 

We both learned when the Treaty of Waitangi was signed (Feb 6th 1840), we 

also learned  when New Zealand first celebrated the Treaty of Waitangi (1974).  

The challenges that we faced were pronouncing the Māori words.
