Blake Expedition For The Environment

On Thursday two girls from the Blake trust fund came, we did VR and learnt about the waterways. We had to see dirty and clean waters then compare them, and talk about the difference. We did some other things as well.

My group was the first group to go down to the VR, they gave us an introduction. There were two girls, Alice and Grace. They told us what was going to happen, and they talked about the Blake foundation

We put the VR headsets on, and we got to look at a few places, then we took them off again. Once we took them off we talked about what waters looked healthy and what didn’t. We put the headsets back on, and we got to fly above the White Island volcano, it was really cool. After that we got to see some seagulls and they were right in front of us!

We looked at more waters, one was really clean, and the other was very gross. We took off the headsets again and then we had to discuss with a buddy about how we can help stop overfishing, and pollution. I was buddies with Rosery and we talked about it, and had some good ideas.

We all discussed how we can help stop overfishing and pollution as a group, then we got to see some extra clips. We saw so many animals, lots of fish, whales, sea lions, eels, seagulls, and stingrays. 

In conclusion, I really enjoyed this experience and I am very grateful, it was a cool experience and it really helped make learning fun, while still teaching us about the environment.
