Helicopter Ride


Helicopter Ride 


Beep beep whiiiiiiiiir TOKA TOKA TOKA i felt the ground slipping away from my feet,I got nervous. “Welcome to volcanic air said the pilot” “If you look out to your left you will see Mt Tarawera” “and if you look out to your right you will see mokoia island”. As the helicopter flew across the water i got butterflies in my stomach. We came into land on the waterfront and people were waving at us so we waved back. When we were 100 meters from the landing pad i held onto the handrail. 


Touchdown. The pilot came around and opened up our doors. As I stepped out of the helicopter I was very cautious that I didn't get my head chopped off by the spinning blades, one last thank you to the pilot and we were on our way back home to Gisborne.

Speeches

In my class we have been doing speeches.
Mine was about topdressers.
here it goes.

Hello my name is Marshall and today i will be talking to you about the history of Topdressers or "fertilizer planes" as you might call them. The idea of topdressing was shown in 1936 by a farmer in hawkes bay, he used a light aircraft to oversow cloverseed.
In 1938 Mr.A.Pritchard then a pilot in the Public Works Department experamented with sowing lupin seed by air on coastal sand country. in 1948 it was proposed that topdressing trials whould be carried out, with  the royal New Zealand Air Force supplying the aircraft. Seven tons of "hard to get" Superphosphate
were obtained by the New Plymouth Fertilizer Works and costs and spreading methods were looked at.
A Tigermoth was initially selected to do the spreading but because of a small payload it was decided to use a Douglas dakota DC-3.
This decision was changed again because the corrosive affects of fertilizer werent known and the DC-3 was and expensive machine to run so a Grummin Avenger was used.
The modern Day Topdresser have so much grunt and pushback force that causes them to land in less than a 90 meter strip of land.
now enjoy a clip of a modern day topdresser at work

Climate change

Climate Change

What is climate change and what is it doing to our planet?

Climate Change is different to global warming, global warming is the earth getting hotter, climate change is changes on our earth's climate. The earth has warmed by an average 1*C in the last century. Although it might not sound like much, it means big things for people and wildlife around the globe. Though in NZ The temperature is twice the tree and reported for global data, which may be due to the relative absence of sulfate aerosols in the South Pacific. 


The Amazon rainforest holds 20% of the Earth oxygen some scientists call it  “the Earths  lungs”, it has Over 1 million plant species living in it but they're becoming extinct due to logging, fires and greenhouse gases.


Climate change is already affecting wildlife all over the world, but certain species are suffering more than others. polar animals whose icy natural habitat is melting in the warmer temperature are particularly at risk. in fact, experts believe that the Arctic sea ice is melting at a shocking rate 9%  per decade! 
 polar bears need sea ice to be able to hunt,  raise their young and as places to rest after long periods of swimming.


The world is changing soon we will be living on a  flooded wasteland wearing gas masks and being able to do nothing about it so if you don't want that to happen then step up and do something about it.
