Community Actions Community Spotlight: Seren George-Davidson, Australia 4 April 2017 By: Seren George-Davidson I’m an ocean lover. I love everything about the ocean. I love going to the beach and running in and out of the waves. Once in Year 2, I did my school news on an Eagle Ray. I told my class that these creatures are really special. They can jump really high but the sad news is they are also endangered because some people want to kill them for their gill rakers. They think they are medicine but they don’t actually do anything.
