Today we read The Adventures of Gary and Harry.

Harry the Hawksbill turtle thought he was eating a jellyfish - but it was a plastic bag!

We talked about things we can use instead of plastic bags;

- cloth bags

- baskets

- our hands!

We met another Hawksbill turtle today. Bruce! 

Bruce is one of the coolest teacher gifts I have ever received. Bruce was adopted in my name. He was injured, he was rehabilitated and he was returned to the ocean to enjoy life - just like Gary and Harry!

What is extra cool is that Bruce has a GPS now and we can watch his movements. He has done a lot of swimming since he was released!

My favourite quote today: "I hope Bruce knows enough not to eat a plastic bag like Harry."
