During 2008, room 23 entered the Resene Mural Competition for 2009. The mural is based on saving New Zealand's only native sea creature, The Maui's Dolphin and saving their homes from set nets.
Here is a letter that Bailee and I wrote:
Dear Forest and Bird
Our class, room 23 at Pukekohe Intermediate School, are writing to you to tell you about our Native Maui's Dolphin.
There are approximately 111 Maui's left in New Zealand and we are really keen to take action and protect them.
Around 250 dolphins die a year (not just Maui's) because of these: plastic bags, our toxic waste going to the sea, nylon fishing nets and boats driving too fast.
We are well underway with painting a mural on a brick wall in our school for the public to learn more about our endangered dolphins and to make them more curious in the drop of population in the last 30-40 years. Now only approximately 10% remain.
Please help us take action. These things need to take place
