Hiwi the Kiwi

This week we had a visit from the FANTASTIC Mr and Mrs Minstrel. They helped us to understand how we can;

• Be safe while fishing on a boat- ALWAYS WEAR A LIFE JACKET!!!
• The importance of measuring our fish to ensure that they are the LEGAL size. Fish that are too small or to big should be returned to our ocean so that they can breed (sustainability).
• Always use a wet towel when handling fish. This helps to protect their scales. Consider fish scales to be like our sun block.
• The dangers of plastic and the negative effects it has on our birds and sea life.
• How to keep seabirds away from our fishing lines (by throwing water at them!)
  

We all learnt a lot from this show. Thanks so much to Mr & Mrs Minstrel for the information and entertainment.
