Project Jonah's visit to kura to talk to the Enviro Team

 We learnt that to help stranded whales-

-don't roll  them on their sides because it hurts their fins and they won't be able to swim.

-put a wet towel or sheet on the whale to keep them cool.

-don't pour water on the blow hole 'cos they won't be able to breathe.

- don't cover their eyes because they won't be able to see what is going on.

-don't go anywhere near the tail because it could hit you with it's tail.

-call for help, ring 08004whale.

Seaweek hat day!
