End Of Year :(

It's nearly the end of year and I have put together a video of many photos from both this year and last year. This video is mostly dedicated to all the Year 8s who will be leaving for college. I am going to miss my class so much! Seven long years. I have laughed, cried, and nearly been through everything with them! I can't believe that everything is nearly coming to a end. :(  I am going to make the most of it, because this might be the last and only time I will ever see them again.

Help Revive Our Culture

The other day we made a short video with the pois that we made at Kapa Haka practice. We used the song "Poi E". The video and project are all based on how us Maori Iwi need to revive our culture. As we all know, less and less people are unable to speak Maori. And many people are doing as much as they can to help revive and save our culture once and for all.

We Did It!

I am extremely proud of my team! We have successfully finished our movie. It had been screened at the Sylvia Park Cinema with all the 12 Manaiakalani Schools watching the movies as an audience. It took a lot of time and practice. But we all manged to push through and get it done. I am proud of my team so very much, that I walked out of the cinema with a big smile on my face! Personally I think our one was the best.

Well Done Team12 we did it!

Tests.

This Term is all about tests! Ohno what more could I worry about? Tests are really something that can make you nervous. Lucky for my class, our teacher has prepared us for all the tests that will be happening. So really I have nothing to worry about at all. We have already sat our writing test, which for me went well. Next to come is Maths! Something I'm not good at. But I know enough, let's just hope my enough will help me pass!

The Beautiful Botanic Gardens 🌹

Today my whole school was lucky enough to spend a few hours at the beautiful Botanic Gardens. Lucky for us it was a nice sunny day & every flower,garden & plant seemed to be growing bright in the spring season. With our topic being about 'plants' I definitely learnt heaps! 

Overall I had so much fun at the Botanic Gardens & I definitely hope to go again.

Skipping Display .

Yesterday we had our skipping display. Excited but nervous at the same time. I knew that our skipping display was the best, especially our music 'Romeo' it suited with what we were doing. To be honest everything went well. It was a surprise because we didn't have much time to practice! Good job Room12.

Cross Country

Yesterday was cross country and I'm proud of my friends! It was very tiring but we all manged to get through the race without any problems. I didn't come 1st, 2nd or 3rd. But it's ok, because cross country is something that I'm not good at. The good thing was that I didn't give up, and I'm happy that I got it over done with! Pheww!
