SW Canterbury Informational Report
This is our information report on the Haast’s Eagle around between 1280 and 1400. It was a terror of the ancient skies and terrorized the Maori and their flock (animals.) Here are a few facts about it.
The Haast’s eagle’s wingspan was roughly 2-3 metres wide enabling it to fly fast and high, plus the fact of its sharp and giant 7.5 cm talons and beak. It can catch quite a few Moa in its time, but sadly in our day it is extinct because the Maori killed off the Moa, so the Haast’s Eagle didn't have any prey left. The Maori couldn’t hunt the Haast’s Eagle because of its supreme speed, severe strength and massive mass, and back then they did not have the right technology.
🦅
So in overall conclusion it was an extremely efficient hunter that was at the top of the food chain for an very long time. It terrorised the Maori for decades, centuries even, so it was a very successful predator.

I used a growth mindset to try my best in all the activities, even though I didn’t get a placing. I didn’t give up, and did not get bogged down by comments.
No, there were just too many good athletes. My goal was to get to the SW Zones and compete, sadly I didn’t. Only first and second place get to go to zones.
Trying my best in every activity e.g. high jump, long jump, and sprints. I also, encouraged others to do well in all their activities.
I think I did long jump the best out of all of my activities beacause I got over the raking, so yeah.
High jump and sprints beacause in sprints I had an aching foot (that I still have) and high jump beacause on my last jump i missed the mat and hit the grass.
I am most proud of my long jump because I tried my best, didn’t give up and got over the rake marks.
