East view Reserve Trip

What? Testing the water quality at loca stream 
Where?East view Reserve,Amaru, Glen Iness , Auckland , New Zealand
Why?To see if it was healthy , and to know how to look after it better.
When?Tuesday 10th of March 2020.
Who? Fezer from the Auckland zoo and TWP 5.


Do you worry about the quality of our water?
Do you know how much life is in the water.
“We're going to check that our local stream is clean,” said Fezer  from the
Auckland zoo.

On Tuesday the 10th of March Te Wairua Pakiki ( TWP) hub wanted to go see
the quality laco stream, so we went after room 3. We had to walk there when we
got there. We saw Frazer from the Auckland zoo and he talked about the 5 C’s.
It is  current, clean, clear and the creature's current means when the water is
moving and clean means there is no rubbish in it. Clear is when you can see
everything underwater, and creatures means there were Insects and any tap
of animal.


After that Fazer took out a big tube. It was full of water and there was a magnet
and I went to try it out. It was so cool  the magnet went up then it started to
disappear. We all wanted to turn so he pulled out a Magnifying glass.
Before we came he put white ball, and the insects came in. We went to go see
with the magnifying glass, we looked closely and we saw the little insects and
big one’s.


He too a bucket and he got water from the stream he got a piece of paper with
different kinds of colours on it when he put it in the water and it changed colours
he pulled out a square,  it have different numbers on it went up to 1-14 he
stopped at 7 that meant it was good if was more then the water will be bad we
were testing it and it was cool that how the colours were changing  we had a
fun time there we sat down a fazer said we did good we all said by we took a
picture at the front of the stream and took the picture there we went back to
school and went for lunch.
