Beach Clean

At the very last day of the term, instead of attending to the Climate Change like last time, our options were different, and it was a beach clean at our very own local beach,

Waikowhai Bay. It was just the senior block attending this walk. We had to be resourceful and re-used the same signs we used in the last march. Then partnered up with the same person we were with to make those signs. As we walked outside school, we stopped and stood outside the school fence to show our signs to those who were passing by, whether the sidewalk or the cars and took photos to keep remember this little trip. After that, we just started walking again. I still holding my sign up with some ''shifts'' with my buddy, also a friend, Jia. It was longer than I thought, but I liked doing this walk, because it was not using any fuel other then my own body and legs. After that, we passed by the beach and sat on the concrete floor for a rest, waiting for instructions form the teachers. 

When the teachers said the instructions, we got into groups of three, and joined into another group of 3 to make a six. Then, the teachers arranged us with an adult, who were kind enough to help. After all that grouping stuff, all groups splits off as we were headed onto the surface of the beach. We walked a little until we were in the area we were assigned to go to.  I got to be with my friends, Neeve, Zoe, Jia, Ama, Chimay and two other boys. Surprisingly, the first thing I found was a pieces of wine glass, and there were alot of those.

 By the way, please do not litter wine glass, or anything else. 

Another shocking thing I learnt during the trip was that there were a huge amount of broken wine glass and whole bottles. We stayed there for pretty much the whole afternoon, the gather in the same place we were before. 

All I can say for this experience is it was an enjoyable one and please try your best to help the marine animals.
