Aussie Rules!!

Every Wednesday we have Aussie rules. Aussie rules is all about a rugby ball and hitting it with our hands. This Wednesday we learnt dancing like a pirate makes a quicker hit to your partner. We also learnt the hand pass and It was really easy to do.

A hand pass is a when you make your hand like a plate and then place the ball on it and hit it with your hand. Yesterday we learnt the chest mark and the specky mark and the high mark. The specky mark is short for the spectacual mark.

The chest mark is when you put your hands together and catch the ball when your partner passes it to you. Partning up with Mya and Efilona, we got straight into it and started jumping for the ball.

Moving onto the high mark was a little hard but I had to do it. Mya was so tall when I had to run for it I could’nt grab it off her. But when Efilona holds it, it is a bit easier. I hope you enjoyed!!

Week 6 - Term 2

This is my progress for this week!

Blues Vs Highlanders!!!

On Saturday night at eight a clock my aunty,cousin and I went to the Blues Vs highlanders game. When we payed our tickets we rushed off inside and got the Blues flag and painted our face blue. Sitting down on our seats I saw Piri weepu training and Ma'a nonu and also Ali williams. Ali williams was the head gear guy.

Every time the Blues would get a try flames would come up and a song will play. The kicker for the Blues was a very good kicker. The people that I know that got a try was the captain Tony woodcock and Tevita mailau. At the end the scores were 20 to the Blues and 27 to the Highlanders. I hope you enjoyed!!!

Going To Church!

On Sunday last week my Mum, Dad and I went to church. When we got there I had to sit in church all by myself. Then I heard someone coming in and it was my cousin. Telling her I felt lonely, some more people started coming so we had to be quiet.

Starting off with our Sunday school lesson we had to read the bible and answer questions but we had to speak in Tongan. If anyone is naughty then they would get a smack from the teacher. I hope you enjoyed!

Art Alive

This term we are learning about art alive and I was so excited to hear that we are learning about art. I think that art is going to be so much fun and it will get me very interested in it. This week we are learning about Picasso.



Picasso is all about drawing the profile of your face and then drawing the front of the face together. Looking at all the pictures that was done like Picasso, it looked very funny. Everyone in our class got to pick one pop star or a singer and sketch it like Picasso.



I picked Nicki Minaj because she looked a little bit easy to draw. Starting off with the profile was a little hard to do but I was getting use to it. When it was finished it looked a bit weird but I had to stick with it.



Drawing the front was easy for me. Her hair was very straight and it was easy to draw. Finishing off with the eyes it looked funny and weird!

In The Holidays

In the holidays I went over to Mangere for the first time. When I got there I was so excited I ran inside and gave my cousin a really big hug. After that we went outside and painted with my cousin’s Nana. Painting with my cousin's was so hard and then I found out that I made a big mistake. I had accidentally knocked over the paint all over the material! Opps!

When the painting was finished we went to the park. At the park we went on the see-saw first. Going up and down, I was nearly going to spew up, so I told my cousin and we changed to the monkey bars. Swinging on the bars I felt like a monkey trying to get bananas. After a little while my cousin and I went back home.

Going to Eastern

In the holidays On Saturday our whole church went to the beach called Eastern. When we got there I was so excited because I really wanted to swim. After that I asked my mum if I can go and have a swim.

My mum said yes so I got into my togs and went in the water. When I got into the water I was freezing cold, So I got back out and waited until my cousins came.

Looking around I saw my cousins and then I stood up and started running to them. When we were walking on the sand we saw a dead penguin. After that we buried it and decorated it with shells.

After we decorated the graveyard we went to a volley net and played volley ball. We looked around and then we saw more people so we went to see them. Suddenly we noticed the tie was coming in so we went for a swim. I hope I get to go to Eastern again.
