On Monday we got a box from school kit with a few things in it and we are going to be writing poetry after we had to use google maps to find out what school it was from the school is St's Peters Private school, in Cambridge north island near Hamilton. We had to use answer garden to figure out what empathy means it means: The ability to understand and share the feelings of another.
I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 8 and in 2021 I will be a year 9. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.

2 Knowing that there could be more electricity and power. But which we should have more trees because they get cut down and we need vegetation.
What I would like to see in 2040?
I would like to see more less pollution and no climate change that can happen to the earth and some electricity that can help.
