Hanga Waka

This week and last week, I have been learning how to build a boat. The good part was having fun and finishing it and the hard part was finishing the work on time and day. My favourite part was building it together with others in my class.

Taumarere History

What is the difference of Taumarere from now and then? Back in the olden days they used to wash there clothes in the awa but now we machines so we could wash our clothes properly. Back then they never had steam trains they had to use coal to run the train, in nowadays  we use a steam engine. Before we were even thought they never had technology they had to think of what to do and to think of something to play with. 

Reading with little kids

On the 07.11.18, I went to go and read with the little children in our school. The easy part was getting them to listen but the hard part was trying to keep them entertained while reading the book. Once I kept them excited we kept taking turns at reading and it turned out to be fun. Here are some photos of us reading to them.

My Holiday

The Beach

1. Food
2. Swimming
3. Bridge

On Sunday the 14.10.18 we all arrived at the beach in Waitangi, I excitedly hoped out of the car and ran down to the sand. It was so warm and the water was so cold. I moved all the food to the chair by the beach. I was so hungry my stomach was rumbling, Once I finished I quickly ran down to the beach and jumped in.

Once I had jumped in I was cold as, I got used to it. All my cousins had came and jumped in. We all played a game. I started to get cold so I just lied on the ground. I got hot again so I expeditiously ran to the water, It started to get warm after a while.

 As all my little cousins got out we all breathlessly ran down to the bridge and instantly hopped on the bridge and jumped off, We all did a chain. It was so fun because I had most of my cousins there. The day had finished and I was extremely tired.

 THE END

Fun Run

On Friday the 7th of September we had cross country but we called it fun run. My race got called out we were all laughing at the starting line. We took some photos before we started the race. We starting running until we went around the corner and then we started walking. Once we got half way and we started to have a mud fight it was awesome but once we finished that the boys came and we had a huge mud fight. It was incredible once we finished we hugged one of our teachers and she got angry. When we finished we went for a swim and then walked back to the beginning. It was very awesome.
