We are surrounded by so many beautiful beaches in East Auckland.
We could name the top 5 local to our school:
* Eastern Beach
* Bucklands Beach
* Howick Beach
* Cockle Bay
* Mellons Bay
During term 1 we learnt all about:
> HOW we use these beaches
> WHAT special treasures are there (both living and non living - example birds and pretty shells)
> WHAT trash is polluted our beaches
| Beautifully illustrated by Ella - how Room 4 use the beach |
| Year 1 students chose 4 items from the table to draw |
| stunning feathers found at local beaches! |

| Saddening to learn about the amount of trash on the beaches |
We have now started to think about HOW we can stop rubbish ending up on our beaches.
With Mr G we have been designing drain traps for our SIXTY stormwater drains.
The year 4 / 5 are also going on a school trip next week to see and learn more about some special sea animals that call NZ beaches home.
