My post is about the wwtp.
A man was showing us around. We were up
to the fllters and there was sand at the
bottem of the tanks to clean the water. It goes from the wwtp to your house
and back to the wwtp. Its like a life
cycle but it dies because you drink
it and you bake with it.
Does it die? Maybe not?
And we went to the wtp
the same thing.






Hey room7! My name is Ella and i'm ready for a exciting term of learning. I hope you are too! I have been learning how to do pop art and I have done some weaving and with the pop art you have to colour lightly over your pop art especially your face because your pop art picture will go dark.
