JORDI AND THE CARPET SHARK



I was swimming in Cairns, suddenly just like magic an unusual thing appeared in the darkness. It was a shark and luckily it was a carpet shark. I swam up to it. Its skin was so rough I nearly cut myself. I held it and it wriggled out and a whole group came to me. I swam into a nearby cave, there were ten holes and I went into the biggest hole. The water was much clearer. It felt nice on my skin.

JORDAN AND THE SHARKS IN JAPAN


I went to Japan and I jumped into the water and I saw a Thresher shark. I don’t know what I was doing there.

I jumped into the ocean and I saw lots of fish, then I saw a big shark. It was a killer shark and I saw him eating fish.

THE AQUARIUM VISIT






Here are some pictures showing our trip to the aquarium in Mapua.

It was a great experience to carry out a scientific investigation into shark behaviour.

AMELIA AND THE SHARKS


Swoosh I saw a shark zooming through the murky water. I got my gear and put it on then I dived in. By the time I got under the water it was too late. So I went on swimming, it was fun. I saw a dark mysterious cave. I swam into the cave and I saw some swell sharks and a Wobbegong. It was sooooo awesome.

SASKIA AND THE SHARKS


Splash! I can’t believe it, I was really in the ocean where all the greatest fish and other mammals live. WOW the first shark I have ever seen. I think it was a Whale Shark the biggest sea creature. Oh my gosh, that’s scary.

LOGAN AND THE SHARKS


In 2006 I felt like going on a holiday. I felt like going to Japan and after two days I saw a boat then it came to me. I went on a fishing boat and it felt like the Titanic. Then I dived into the deep blue sea. Then I saw my first ever shark.
