Catching flounders

Today Pt England School had a special outing. The whole school gathered and walked down to the Tamaki Estuary to watch Mr Voight and some of our students, cast large flounder nets out to try and catch some flounder. When we got to the reserve we all sang some waiata and said a karakia the group of students were already in the water dragging the net through the sea to catch the flounder. The reason we were catching flounder was so we could bring them back to school and put them in our special tank, where Mr Voight and his team would take care of them. We were very lucky that it did not rain. Everyone had a nice morning out of the classroom.
