My name is Luca. I am a year 5 and I go to Enrich every Monday. My favourite thing to do at Enrich are mental edge games. My favourite game is chess. My strength area is maths and my passion is chemistry.
Today we visited the city council chamber and told them our idea for our environment project and we got to sit at a table in front of Darren and Bill the city council people. Since Tim Shadbolt wasn't there Darren took over for him. After that they let us have morning tea there and what we had was muffins and juice. We were the first group to go up and present our keynote at first I felt a bit scared but then I felt a little bit better.
Today the Wednesday our group from Enrich is preparing to go to the city council chambers to present our keynotes for Wachner Place and our group is all done and ready to go. This was the last week to get ready for it and next week we're going to be presenting our presentation. Alana said we might be scared about talking to adults that we don't know, but don't worry if they ask us questions, because they are interested in our ideas. Every group wants the city council people to say that they can put their idea in Wachner Place.
Today Enrich's Wednesday group watched a video about how we pollute the air and it showed us the ten most polluted cities in the world. Luckily for us Invercargill isn't one of those cities. The worst city is Azkah, Iran. In it the city it is completely yellow and you can't see a thing so I think you would be happy that you don't live there. The people there don't realize because they are used to it now and the kids that are born there grow up used to it as well so everyone there is basically used to it. They might be used to it but that doesn't mean we just could sit around and do nothing about does it? No, it doesn't, so I suggest you stop playing around and make the future better. This pollution is what we're doing, not them, all of us.
Today we did even more of our environment projects and we figured out where we were going put our ball tilting maze and answered some questions that we thought the City Council would ask. We're going to hang our ball maze up on a blank bit of wall in Wachner Place. But... before we do it we have to convince the council to go with our plan!
