The Weekend

On Saturday night I had my niece for sleep over at my house. She came when we came back from our family meeting. We saw my brother and my mum told my sister to text him to tell him to follow us. Then he said, “Yes.” So he followed us to our house.

When we got there I was so happy that my niece came over. My brother asked if I could sleep over at his house on Sunday to help my brother’s is girlfriend with my niece. My mum said, “Yes.” When it was Sunday I woke up and my niece was already awake so I make weet-bix for her breakfast because my mum had to look for her church clothes. Then when it was time to go to church I dressed her up for church.

My mum was busy doing the food so I had to dress her up and do her hair. When church was finished I came home and called my brother and he came to pick us up from our house. I love looking after my niece.

Winter Sun

In the morning when I woke up the sun was shining through my window. When I got out of my bed I was cold. I went to brush my teeth and then I had a shower before I put on my uniform.After that I ate my breakfast. While I was walking to school with my sister I just walked in the sun and then I felt warm.

These a my RWC questions.

All Blacks Challenge

Family Meeting

On Saturday we went to our auntie’s house to have a meeting. It was about our grandfather’s 80TH birthday. We talked about what we are going to cook. They asked my mum if she could bake 10 pineapple pies and cook butter chicken and salad. We are going to have it at his house in Maybury St. My sister and my cousins had to think of presents to give him. My big sister is buying the cake. My aunties had something each to cook and bring. It is going to be a lovely birthday.

Mark and the salty sky

Mark was having his first holiday in the country. In the morning he was having fun, but when bedtime came Mark could not go to sleep. He felt his way along to the curtain. He opened it. There were no street lights and no lights from cars going by. Mark called out to his dad and asked him to please turn on the light. But his dad had a better idea. He said to Mark, “Come with me and I will show you something special.” Mark did not mind going in the dark with his dad. It was quite exciting. When they got past the passage and the bush. His dad said, “Look up to the sky.” What did he see? Stars! Not bits of stars. There were hundreds and thousands and millions and billions and trillions of stars. “Gosh,”said Mark. “It looks like someone sprinkled salt on to the sky.” Mark went off to sleep thinking about the starry sky. When Mark went to eat has breakfast he asked his dad if he could have are very dark blue plate. So his dad gave him the plate. Then Mark sprinkled the salt on the plate. His dad smiled. “Ahh!’’ he said, “I see!”

My Flag

This flag represents me and my family.

Possum Magic

Once upon time there were two possums and their names were Hush and her Grandma was Poss. Hush asked her grandma if she could make her invisible. Then her grandma made her invisible so she could be safe. What adventures Hush had. She could be squashed by Koalas.She couldn't be seen if she slid down the Kangaroo’s tail. She could hang from trees and could not be seen by the snakes.
Hush wanted Grandma Posh to make her visible but it did not work.Then she had to eat some food to make her visible again. Hush ate a vegemite sandwich in Darwin and her tail appeared. Then she went to Perth and ate pavlova and her legs were seen. Next she went to Hobart and had a lamington and it worked. She was visible again.

Stamping the books

In lunchtime I go to the office so I can help to do the books. It is so fun to help.

Me and my teacher who is leaveing

This is me with my teacher who is going to be leaving today. WE WILL MISS YOU!!! HOPE YOU HAD FUN WITH ROOM 17.

Serena and Moala are redesigning the courtyard

We are redesigning our courtyard.

Our first idea is to put some fake mushroom chairs in our garden. We chose it so we can sit and eat our lunch.We need them so we can not sit on the deck. We found Mushroom chairs at Bed Bath and Beyond for $130 each.


Our second idea is to put log seats in the corner of the courtyard. We like them because it is just better for our
yard because more people can sit on them.We found one from the country log chairs it is $60.00 each.

Our third idea is to put up a basketball hoop. We chose it so we can play with it every day if we are bored.We need it because there are not enough basketball hoops in our school.We found it in the basketball hoops they are 212.00 each.

Land and Sea

There are massive rocks that look like mountains and they look like volcanos too. There are dark green trees and they look like a little forest. The grass is really light green and would be lovely to sit on. There is white sand and it would be beautiful to walk on. The blue ocean has little islands in them and I would like to live there.

Experimenting with popcorn

On Wednesday we made yoghurt popcorn and the recipe said that we had to put the popcorn seeds into the popcorn machine . Then it said that we had to put only 1/3cup of maple syrup and 1 cup of brown sugar and put it into the pot with one cup of plain yoghurt. Britney mixed it all together. When the popcorn was popping everywhere. We had to stop it so we could put it in the bowl. Then we poured the mixture into the bowl and mixed it. After that I mixed it and then I put the popcorn into the cups. I tasted it and it was so yucky and sickly.
On Thursday we made chicken stock popcorn. We put the popcorn seed inside the popcorn maker. It sounded like a lawn mower mowing the grass. Then we put the popcorn in the bowl before Htawara put some chicken stock in the bowl. We washed our hands with the sanitisor. Doris put her hands in the bowl and mix it all together. We had some popcorn to eat it was yummy. It was my favourite popcorn.

Powhiri

Today we had a special assembly for special visitors who came from the Wake Forest University in United States. We all stood up and then Shanaia and Awhina welcomed them in. Then Feke did the karakia. After that the Pounamu sang a welcome song for them. Tevita stood up and did the welcome speech to them it was so long when he was a little bit half way the Pounamu group did a another song. Then there were two ladies who stood up and did a little thankyou speech and then another lady was holding are big black plastic bag and inside was are big white star. They gave it to us as a taonga and then they sang their anthem song. It was are cool song and when they were finished Mr Burt spoke in Maori and in English to our visitors then Mr Burt said, “ We do hugs.” When they were finished the Pounamu group sang are good bye song as they leave the hall.

Swimming

popcorn tasting

Today we tasted two kinds of popcorn. The first one was candy coated popcorn. It was little bit yucky but my favourite one was the yellow one because it tasted like banana and lollies.
Next we tasted the caramel popcorn and it was yummy. It tasted like toffee and smelt like Tongan oil. My favorite popcorn was caramel because it was so sweet and slippery and like toffee too.

Tornado

On Tuesday the 3rd of May there was a tornado at Albany. It was so shocking for some people.Albany shopping center was partly ruined because of the Tornado. One trampoline was flying in the air and landed on the roof of the house. Cars were rolling everywhere and some buildings had their roofs taken off. Trees was broken and were everywhere. If there was a tornado at Auckland I will be shock. Hope that the North shore people will be alright. A BIG LOVE FROM MOALA

Eggs in a basket

On Tuesday I painted my egg white. When I was finished I put it on the window sill so it could dry. Then I went to design my egg patterns on some paper. I designed different shapes and hearts. The next day we made our baskets. The colour of my basket was green .Then I coloured my picture on the basket. But before that I designed my pattern for my egg.The last thing I did was put my egg in the basket.

Artspace 17

My flower picture is about how I see when I’m drawing and how nice it is. When I see my picture up on the wall, I feel like that I did something wrong. I think that No one will like my picture how I drew it. When I was thinking how am I going to draw it but I think that I am going to just look at the picture and copy it. But I did My best and I like it.

Rain

When it rains at playtime I feel happy that I can
go to the library to do my job and clean up the office for Mrs Flavelle.
At the night when it rains I feel warm and annoyed because when I was watch t.v I hear the noise outside. I go to my sister’s room and watch the t.v and it is nice.

On Friday 11TH of March there was are earthquake and a tsunami in Japan . Lots of people are dead and missing. There are lots of families who have lost their loved ones and may never find them. There were big waves coming and going over the houses but some people were trapped in their houses and may not be alive and there are big fires in buildings.

Yesterday there was an earthquake in Christchurch. It was so bad that lots of buildings collapsed and were ruined.
