__﻿//**Dr. Greg Lindsay Visits Wakaaranga**// __

//**On Wednesday the 27th of October Dr.Greg Lindsay visited Wakaaranga. Dr.Greg Lindsay lives in the country and he is a vet. He mainly cares for dairy cows such as Fresians, Jerseys and Ayrshires. Dr.Greg Lindsay has many farms around the South Island. He also cares for problems on the cow like a tummy bug and mastitis because not only do we get sick cows get sick too!! Sometimes they give cows surgery by opening their stomach and placing their hands into their stomach. Dr Lindsay used to be a student in Wakaaranga Primary and when he was 8 years old he wanted to be a vet so that was really a dream come true!**// //**The End**//

__//**Sweet-Bear Machine**//__ 


 * //First you put the ingredients into the funnel and then the ingredients will stir in the machine and come out with a pot. After that it will land on the conveyor belt and go through an oven-like machine and the machine will stir the lolly again and then take the pot away so it is left as just the lolly. Then it will go through the freezer and it will freeze for 10 minutes. Next it will go to the two hands. The hands will then put the teddy bear shape on. After that it will go through the food colouring machine and then it will slip down the twisty slide. Finally it will get wrapped and fall into a basket which will carry the lolly to the market. YUMMY!! //**

**Hinemoa and Tutanekai** //**Long, long ago there was a beautiful young woman called Hinemoa. She lived in a village called Owhata. Next to Owhata there was an island called Mokoia Island. On Mokoia Island there was a young man called Tutanekai. Hinemoa and Tutanekai were in love. So every night when Tutanekai and his friend Tiki would play their flutes Hinemoa would use the villagers canoes and paddle over to Mokoia Island and meet Tutanekai there. On the next night when Tutanekai and Tiki played their flutes thinking that Hinemoa would come, she didn't, because the villagers had heard that Hinemoa was paddling over in one of their canoes to Mokoia Island to see Tutanekai and pulled their canoes high up onto the shore, so that they were too heavy for Hinemoa to drag down to the water. So Hinemoa made a choice and tied six calabashes onto her body and swam off into the lake in the middle of the night. After swimming for a while, she stopped for a rest at Hinewhata, a tree which was in the middle of the lake and waited until she had caught her breath again. When she finally arrived on the island, she was very cold and she lay in one of the hotpools to get warm. after a while, Tutanekai's slave arrived at the pool to get water for him. Hinemoa crashed two bowls onto the ground and the slave had to return with no water. Angrily, Tutanekai went to the pool to see who had broken his water bowls. When he saw that it was Hinemoa, he was overjoyed and wrapped his cloak around her. Hinemoa and Tutanekai lived happily on the island for many years**//.
