  • water fest

      6 February 2010

    Good after noon! I have just come back from the trip of a lifetime!!!! I went to JAPAN!!!! It was an utterly amazing experience! I spread the word over their and many people showed much interest in our conservation! Today I talked at a water fest in New Brighton, and afterwards a lovely woman came up and put 100!! Dollars in my hand and said hfor the dolphinsh I was just so shocked!!!! Then we talked for a while and I found out that when she was pregnant she swam with the hectors and she said it was absolutely amazing! They guarded her like and got all protective! I will research why that is and let you all know in my next blog!! Thanks guys!

  • 20th blog

      20 January 2010

    Hello everyone, Thank you to everyone who has kindly already donated, and to everyone supporting me! I have recently returned from a lovely adventure with my family. We went down south, which is a first for me and my little bro! We saw penguins and seals, heard native birds sing and found the many uses of seaweed! Last week WWF kindly sent me on gRegeneration Summer Jamh, and youth camp, which by the way I was dreading! Turns out I didnft want to leave! I learnt about gardening and composts, ways to think sustainably when house building and meet many other young people who are also making a stand for what they believe in! Itfs amazing to actually see the action that they are all taking to make a change! And also seeing how interconnected all of our projects are! Was an overall amazing experience! Later in the week we (Tanya and the rest of the crew!) held a meeting to confirm walkers! Now there is only one space I believe! This is super! Thanks Aescleah H! :)
