Tech

Radiata Pine

At school in wood tech I have been making spatulas. I have been taught how to draw animated drawings and to be able to shade. I have experienced using many types of saws e.g. coping saws and a band saw. I have also used a machine sander and drills. I used radiata pine which is an exotic tree which originates from America. I had to create a handle which was comfortable and a blade.

Camp!

Waitakere

Please share a camp that you have been on here.

I have got my school camp coming up soon at the Waitakere Ranges. I am staying in a tent for 4 nights and I will be going on a long tramp during the camp. I also have to cook my own food. It will be challenging but hopefully fun. I also will be swimming at a waterfall.

2008 Rich Task

This year I am studying the Waitakere ranges. I am looking at ecosystems, food chains and also the history of them. I am going on camp to the Waitakere ranges so I will find out more when I go there. I am also looking at the wild life like the native bush and the animals.
If you have any information about this please feel free to post a comment.
