Lake Waikareiti

Lake Waikareiti

I liked rowing at lake Waikareiti I went there with my class on tuesday June the 28th.

I felt like I was going to die my legs were practically dead but I had much more to do and I needed to row after then it came the bathroom I needed to go I was desperate then mum came up beside me and said “hey Heith how are you” “bad” I replied “why’’ mum said “what's the matter” I looked at mum and said “I need to go I’m urgent I feel like If I hold on much longer I will blow up” mum came up with an idea she said “why don’t you go behind a tree” “no what if other people see and I will be embarrassed if they do and we are not allowed off of the track  and if there is a tree in the middle of the path I am not going behind it because its in the middle so I will be seen by someone” mum said “look a long drop” and when I came out we walked for 2 more minutes then we were there yay! I shrieked It was a whole new experience and it was very fun that was something I definitely will never forget.

Lake Waikareiti is located in Urewera national park in the North Island of New Zealand This lake is full of crystal clear water and the current is not very strong and a soft current means easier to row boats like canoes,kayaks and rowboats.

Lake Waikareiti is full of trout which means that it is a perfect place for fishing it is clear and that deep it is almost like a mini version of the sea.

Lake Waikareiti is 880 meters above sea level that means that lake Waikareiti is on top of a hill it is a 1 hour walk through a forest to get there and because lake Waikareiti is on a hill it is an uphill walk.

Lake Waikareiti has 6 islands the names of the islands are Rahui Island, Motutorutoru Island,Te Oneatahu Island,Te Arakoau Island,Te Kahaatuwai Island and Motungarara Island.

Lake Waikareiti is a perfect lake and never noisy at all.I really loved lake Waikareiti and a new experience means more fun you have put into your life and I don’t think it will ever get boring.

Tramping info

This paragraph has information rules and what you need to have your home away from home.

Gear

You will need to bring certain things in your bag and in order to sleeping bags and tents will go in the bottom of the bag food in the middle of the bag and rain coats and jackets .the top of the bag bring food water first aid kit clothes compass if you have one sleeping bags and sometimes bring a survival kit make sure that you put the gear in seal-able plastic bags before you put them in your normal bag.

North South East and West

It is real important to know North South East and West.Look at the sun if it is fully risen that means that the sun is at north the sun sets at West and rises in the East or just use a compass that would be easier.

Rules

First tell someone your plan know your limit and be prepared for the weather and use star.Star means to stop think assess and respond this can be used for if you get lost in the forest.

Training

You will need to train to get fit and wear shoes that you have broken into your shoes and wear socks that are not ankle socks or you will get blisters.

That was my report on how to survive in the bush hope you enjoyed it.

Charlie the dog

I was chewing a piece of toast at nana’s house.

Suddenly  Charlie came darting through the house chasing after Holley

She ran to nana and said “ Charlie is chasing me”

Charlie runs in the kitchen at full speed then nana yells “Stop Charlie!”

Charlie stops straight away.  He sits down

Holley starts to laugh and I start to play with Charlie.

This poem was modeled on Katherine Mansfield's poem Butterfly Laughter.

cave weta

Cave Weta

Cave Weta are insects.There are at least 60 species of them.

Cave Weta are endangered and very rare but very easy to find at camp when you highk in the caves.

You can tell that they are females because of the spike at the back of its body that they use to lay eggs.Birds and rats are their predators.They  lay eggs  in groups of 20 they take 6 months to hatch.

Cave Weta are an omnivore.That means that they eat most things like insect’s,plant’s,biscuit's and even things like cardboard and paper.

Cave Weta have two long feelers.The back leg is at least 5 inches long and the back of the legs have spikes the other legs are 4 inches long, don't have spikes and are skinnier then the back legs.If they have two spikes on the rear end they are a mail if it has one spike it is a mail.The color of a cave weta is brown black and a color close to orange.Their feet are like tiny little black sticks.

Cave Wetas habitat are caves the caves are often filled with them walking on the sides of the cave.They are in very dark places like in logs and sometimes underground caves.

Cave Weta don’t communicate with sound they instead they communicate by movement in their back legs such as rubbing their back legs repeatedly.

These interesting bugs are nearly extinct so if you find one do not scare it or take it home.We need to look after them and do everything we can do to help them survive.I think they are awesome so you should adore them as well.
