My super long day

Yesterday I went to my auntys house while my brother was having a sleep over. Today was a hot and long day. We spent most of our day at my auntys work. We colored in played of lots of games and help her file things. In the morning we went to get some snacks. In the afternoon we got some lunch. We had subway and some hot chips. Me and my sister got the meatball, cheese and lettuce sandwich. After lunch we filed things. Which took us so long. By the time we finished and it was time to go home, we were all hungry so we went to have dinner. Later we made our way home and made our own Ice cream Sundays!

First I grabbed a big long tall cup out of the cupboard. Then looked for the chocolate sauce. Once I got all my ingredients I went ahead to make my Sunday! First I put a small layer of chocolate sauce at the bottom of my cup I then went along and put some cream right to the top of the cup. To finish it all off, I put some chocolate sauce on the top along with some colorful sprinkles! It was so nice to have ice cream!

Going Swimming

Yesterday in the afternoon My mum, Eva, twin sisters and I decided to go for a swim at the lagoon pools. I decided I wanted to go to the pools to celebrate my learning that I have done all year. When we arrived at the pools we saw lots of other people at the pool. I saw some of my friends, some of my sisters friend and even some of my brothers friends! We played lots of games in the cold water, We also got crowded a lot. My brother was walking from the school so he did take a while to get there. We had lots of fun swimming and splashing each other. After a while we went to have something to snack on. We ate Yummy flavored chips and even had a drink. We did wait just a little bit for our food to digest because, you don't want anything to go wrong in there. We did want to go onto that big swirly slide but we couldn't. Most of the time we swam outside, but we did go on the inside and in the water park. When it was time to go home I was so sad. I wasn't ready to go back home. I just wanted to hop back into the water. When my mum caught me with a frown on my face she said to me "don't worry we are going to come here on the second of January!" Then my frown turned back upside down. I was just so happy to here that we will be going back too the pools once more!

Activity 2: North and south

Now it is time to think about your hometown. What is special about where you live? On your blog, describe your hometown. Be sure to include lots of describing words (adjectives) in your post.
Week 1: In the beginning
Activity 2: North and south

So this is day 2, week 1 for the summer learning journey. I have been asked to talk about
my home town. I was born in New Zealand, Auckland. Now, let me tell you why my
hometown is so special to me.


#My Family:
Auckland is an amazing place with around 1.600 million people. We all have amazing
families that love us lots and good homes to live in. My family is very caring for each other.
And care about all the successful and unsuccessful things we do in our life. We don’t just
care for each other but we do also care about our community and school.


#My School:
The school I go to is called Pt England Primary. Pt England Primary is a school with around
600 kids. Our years go from year 1-8. At our school, we like to have fun. We enjoy having
picnics down at our school reserve, going camping out in the summer and even going on
school trips. We have amazing teachers that teach us how to learn and even have laughs
with us. When you become a new entrance you will get a warm and heartfelt welcome from
the whole school. Our school does everything to make you feel welcomed.


#The Holidays:
The Holidays are another reason why my hometown is so special. Some holiday we go full
out. We decorate the inside of our houses but even the outside of our houses. One of my
favorite holidays is, Kirihimete! (Christmas) Even though in most countries it’s winter in
Kirihimete it’s good to be different. By the time Kirihimete comes around, it’s summer in
New Zealand. For Kirihimete we mostly go out on the hot beach and swim in the warm
glistening water. When that’s over we make our way back to our houses and open up our
exciting presents that have been calling our name from the start of the day. We even have
big feed with your family like, BBQ’s and even Hangi’s.


So that's the reason why Auckland, New Zealand is so special to me. I hope you enjoyed
this blog post of why Kirihimete, family, holidays and school make my hometown so
special.

Stay tuned for more holiday blogging!

Week 1: In the beginning
Day 1: The legend of New Zealand.




#Fact 1: As some people should know the Maori name for New Zealand is
Aotearoa. In English Aotearoa means the land of the long white cloud. It was quite interesting that, that is what Aotearoa means. The long white cloud HMM MM....? Is it name the long white cloud because we have a log white cloud going through the sky? I don’t exactly know why we decided to have Aotearoa as our Maori name but when I do I will tell you about it. if you have any idea of why it might be called long white cloud comment down bellow.

#Fact 2: Did you know that there are no snakes is New Zealand? I was surprised when I heard there were no snakes in New Zealand. When I was younger I used to be afraid of snakes so I was so relieved when I heard there were no snakes in New Zealand. I also wonder why we don't have any snakes in New Zealand. I wonder if the ever will be. What do you think?

#Fact 3: Did you know to become a New Zealand citizen, you have to swear an oath of loyalty to Queen Elizabeth. I wonder how scary this would be to do it in front of the queen. People would find this super exciting as I would find this super scary. Others would find it exciting because, I mean their meeting the queen. I would find it scary also because IT'S THE QUEEN!

I hope you enjoyed this blog post!

2018 reflection (EXT)

This term has been a great term. We got to go to camp Bentzon, hangout with my friends and more. one of my favorite things we did this term was being in extension. We got to use 3D pens and do lots of other fun things.

Term 2 we had an amazing term with lots of amazing facts. We went for a trip to the museum and did our talanoa projects. At the museum we got to see lots of ancient artifacts. We had so much touching and feeling the ancient artifacts. We also had so much fun making our Talanoa DLO's because we got to talk about what we learnt.

Term 3 was all about moving your body and about eating healthy food. We had awesome groups to work with and all got good marks. We also went to Gravity. We went to Gravity because our theme was move your body and so we went somewhere fun and somewhere, where we could get fit.

Today we had a shared lunch, for the year 5 and 6 celebration. We came together and celebrated the work we have done all term. We also did secret Santa. I got Amira but she wasn't here and so I had nothing to give her. The food was amazing and was super yummy. We had lot of doughnuts and lots of yummy chips and drinks. For secret Santa I received a slime kit from Austin. I loved my present and I hope everyone has a great and safe Christmas.







Overall I had a wonderfull year!
