Today we went to the beach to learn and care for the sand dunes.
We learnt about what made the sand dunes disappear we did it because if we didn't have sand dunes every thing will be water so that's why we are trying to care for the sand dunes we are also caring for the land and what is in it.
First we learnt about what makes the sand dunes disappear like storms,waves and also people. People wreck the sand dunes by running up and down on the sand dunes its a bit weird to me.
Then we split into 4 groups and we made our own sand dunes it was really fun when we were finished we talked about the things that live on the beach like marran grass sand hoppers pingao sand Beatles and the katipo/spider they sounded like really cool names to me.
After that, we put dry sand on our mini sand dunes after that we put green things to protect our mini sand dunes and put some ladder's on them made out of sticks then we got some dead grass to make it look like it was grass (obviously) and put some seaweed to decorate the mini sand dunes.
Finally we were finished we looked at the other 3 groups lastly we looked at some pictures of other beaches after when storms happened in other country's they were wrecked then we went back to school I like the beach do you?
