Hi Charlie, I am Ethan from Waikowhai Primary School. I really liked reading your blog post because I got to learn new things like the Greater Short-Tailed Bat. I also liked that you labeled it instead of writing it in one block because you can go straight to the one that you want to read first. Maybe next you should check your writing or check it again because there are some double spaces. Also check out my blog it's http://wpsethanc.blogspot.com/ blog ya later!
