Rare forest ringlet butterflies found on Little Barrier Island
A population of rare native butterflies has been found on Little Barrier Island in the Hauraki Gulf. Rats and wasps have reduced the forest band to only small pockets around the country.
Moths and Butterflies Trust spokeswoman Jacqui Knight says five Butterflies were seen on the same day, and it's clue to what predators are wiping out the popular insect's numbers.
Now that we found it is in good numbers on great barrier we are thinking it could be rats and wasps.

Tamaki Collage Working With Mr Grundy Technology!
For Technology the year 7 are in Mr Grundy's workshop and the year 8's have to go to the Kitchen because they are cooking. At Mr Grundy's workshop he was showing us his cool creations and telling us how he made them. He said that if we come out with a great creation that hes never seen he will give us high marks! When he was showing us his creations he was telling us that you have to always have to use housing joints so you can connect your wood to the part of the creation that you just made. We are going to learn how to craft the creations that Mr Grundy made. or even craft our own creations.
