CAMP
Next Wednesday I'm going to camp for three days with my class. We're going to Aurthur's pass on an electric train. We are staying at a lodge in the mountains and I think we are going to hike and crose a river. It's suposed to be REALLY pretty. Hopefully there will be lots of snow on the ground and we'll have good weather for the time that we're there.
KEAS
I learned that Kea birds live in the alpine forests and Keas are big green parrots that are really smart and almost extinct. The Keas are almost extinct because they used to be killed for bounty because they killed livestock. Also keas live in Aurthur's pass and they are reported to rip up people's cars and steel stuff. Keas really like shiny things so thats why they're steeling stuff. I'm really looking forward to going to Aurthur's pass next week.
SCHOOL
Last friday I got another award and it was for the color wheel I made. Also on friday we brought our clothes for camp for Ms. Jones,my teacher, to check. Every one is really looking forward to going to camp in my class.
Kayley--The keas are really cool, but look out. They really are smart and they really do steal stuff. They can unhook doors to get to food; they can unlace shoes and steal the laces; they can do amazing things. But they are friendly and pretty. I'll bet your camping trip will be just beautiful. Enjoy.

ReplyDeleteSound wonderful! A few days in the wild is just what every girl need:) Watch out for the bears! Oh, never mind, they don't have bears there:) You have to let me know how the electric train ride feel. Amazing adventure you will have. I am excited for you!
