Aquarium Trip

This Term Room 9 and 11 went to the Aquarium.  We learnt about fishing for the future, just like the Minstrel did.

First of all, we went to the thinking room and we learnt about orange roughy.  We learnt that orange roughies are poisonous.

Then we went to the big tank with two eels.  We touched the eels, they felt so slimy!  Next, we went to the touch pools where there were baby sharks and one big shark.   We also saw eagle rays that are small types of stingrays.    Our t-shirts got wet! Finally, we went to the other touch pools, there were kinas and elephant slugs.  We touched the sea creatures and fish lots of times.

It was great fun touching the eels,  sting rays and the creatures in the touch pools.  thank you Richard for letting us touch the sea creature in your aquarium.

  2. Thank you Mum for making a comment on our blog. We had to use PhotoStory 3 to make our pictures into a movie. The touch pools were very slimy! I like our blog because we are putting movies on it and writing stories.
