Minister Of Education

 Last week the Minister Of Education came to school. Her name is Hekia Parata she is from the East Coast and is a Maori. She comes from a big family who likes to give back to their community. She was coming to our school to start a program that helps Pacific Islanders to get better education. Because the education results that Maori and Pacific Islanders are getting is worse than other cultures.


I had to present a Maori Mihi to Hekia Parata. I was really nervous. I didn’t even want to say it. I was praying that I wouldn’t get mucked up with my words. I started off nice and smooth the words were just flowing out of and before I knew it, I was finished. I went back to my seat and felt a big relief leaving my body. I was really happy that I didn’t get the words wrong.

Maniakalani Festival



For four years running our cluster Tamaki has a annual year film festival. We went to Hoyts to watch our movies on the extreme screen. We had to pay two dollars each for the bus. On the bus we raped some Afroman songs and some other ones. When we got there I started running around but then I got in trouble.

When we walked into Sylvia Park we had to walk up the stairs because the public were using the escalators. We were going to the extreme screen the biggest screen in the southern hemisphere. The movies last about five minutes each. so the whole thing was bound to be about an hour long. We went at 1:30Pm and arrived at 1:45Pm so would leave at about 3:00Pm.



 All the movies were great but some were just plain boring. The most creative movie was probably Room 18’s movie. They were just using their eyes to say hello. But the way that they were doing it was funny. There are many more interesting movies just CLICK ON ME

Athletics Recount

 I was waiting for athletics for ages. I was ready to verse my friends and try to beat them. I first activity was Sprints. Me and my three mates Ahsin,Crusader and Kingston have the biggest rivalry ever we’ve had beefs in Sprints since we were year three. Last year my mate Crusader but this year I thought that I would definitely win. But to my surprise my mates wanted to jog I was shocked and disappointed.


The next activity that my age group that we were doing was discus. Discus is dumb because its long and boring. I also suck at it too. It was my turn and I was nervous because I knew that, I was going to do a epic fail. It actually wasn’t that bad but I didn’t even make it into the top three. My mate Raenan came first last year but he got dream shattered, he also didn’t make it into the top three.
