Thoughts about this term!

To start of term 4, I am going to write about our term topic. I actually have the opportunity to learn about other people and their life back when they were young, and how they may have had  a favourite toy or something they enjoyed playing with.

Sadly I don’t remember having a toy when I was young, which has left me with nothing to remember my young ages only of course pictures not much but still something. I have never had a favourite toy, all toys are my favourite I have only ever had this one toy I’ll never forget and that was my only singing doll. when I was young I got this doll for my 3rd birthday, that is all I remember. I’m not a child anymore but I do still play with toys. :)

To close of my post I will try show you a similar picture to my singing doll. I got this picture from

The social all lit up!

As of Thursday the 13th there was a school social. At first I was like yaaaaay! but then when I got there I was like “hmmm” this wasn’t what I had planned it to be like. There wasn’t much people there only about 50-80 children there Including the teachers, other than that I was fun and boring at the same time.
I was stressing over what to wear, then I realized it’s just a social why am I stressing I’ll just wear casual clothes. LET’S GO!!

I was having a blast with the music and all the food and all the people dancing. It was a fun time UNTIL......... It felt like I had split my jeans, how disappointing  is that. I got up to dance but then suddenly I never felt in the need to dance so I sat on the stage and watched everyone have fun for a bit then I got back down and ran around.

I’m having fun running around but I want to have more fun. I jump into everyones photos and run. Posing and running then posing then running, don’t you think that is alot of running. Its really not cause the hall was really small. LOL :) :)

The most exciting at the social was the dougie battle It was funny. I was too afraid to jump in the middle unfortunately a boy won instead of a girl. I hope we do get to do this again before the end of the year. This would have probably been the next best social I’ve been to maybe not but still was very cool.

My Favorite sport!!

This week I have recently just chosen to write about sports. These 7 teams listed are the in NRL:

Melbourne STORM
West TIGERS
Brisbane BRONCOS
Gold Coast TITANS
Vodafone WARRIORS
Parramatta EELS

These are the team that have Inspired me to LOVE.. league.

I have 4 most favourite teams ever..... Which are Melbourne STORM Brisbane BRONCOS Vodafone WARRIORS and West TIGERS. I have admired these teams for a very long time I have seen most of them in real life Just not Melbourne STORM, and the West TIGERS, but I really hope I get to see them.

I also have 2 least favourite teams. I have nothing against them It is just that I don’t know much about them. Which are Canberra RAIDERS and the South Sydney RABBITOHS. I am going to try learn  alot about these 2 In Particular teams, and by the end of this year I would like to know alot of facts about them.

What Sports do you play? I’ve play alot of sports, like Netball, Rugby, Basketball, Tag, Touch and Rippa rugby as well. I would like the experience to learn about other sports.
It feels great to be a sporty person and not a person who just sits down and reads ( even though I do love to read). I hope I do remember to write about this again, thats if I remember.

My Cousins Celebration Party!!!



As I walk inside with my little cousin Jeremiah, I saw people in the backyard and children on the trampoline.
I asked “ what’s happening here”
In a shocking reply by them all “Its Jeremiah's and Josiah’s Birthday party”
Mele said “did you forget already”
I replied “NO.... ok maybe I did, but thats not so bad is it”
Mele said “ no, come on before they start without us”
I shouted “ Coming”.

As I start by eating then playing then eating again woah it was like the food was calling me wherever I went. I was so glad I got there on time, especially before they started eating. I would have been the unluckiest girl there, if I hadn’t made it there on time. Well anyway the theme for this party was to come dressed as your favourite team or team colours. I went dressed as a broncos supporter wearing the jersey and all.

I saw these amazing NRL balloons floating upwards I wondered....... don’t normal balloons hang down and float on the ground.
My aunty said “NO those are helium balloons, it's the ones that you breath in and they make your voice go all funny”. You probably shouldn’t have told me that because now I’m going to do it. I tried it by saying “hello”. It sounded a little high pitched and didn’t sound like me at all.

To close off the party we went to Waiwera the next day, the wind was chilly but the water was warm. I hope we get to do something fun like this for my cousin Mele’s birthday in a few weeks time.

A Maori Manaia!!

Who knows what a manaia is?
A manaia is a white necklace made out of dolphin bone it is the style of a birds head and a humans form.
From what I heard the name Manaia mean guardian, provider, bird, beautiful and kind.


These previous pictures is from google, I searched them up and found that they looked Interesting so I made it into a collage called “My Manaia masterpiece”




Before you wear a Manaia you must get it blessed, for you or the person you might be getting it for. It is a good present for christmas or a birthday party, It is good either way.

Having a manaia to you might be nothing, but to other people it is a privilege. Because to me a manaia represents yourself and your family especially to other important people. You might think a manaia is a stupid old necklace but really it has all sorts of awesome carving on it looks really cool..

The Concluding Goal Counts!!

It all started with loud mouths and enthusiastic people. Monday the 20th was the day that the year 7&8 girls, (including me) went to compete in a tournament hosted in the ASB indoor basketball courts, at Selwyn College.

The listed teams are the schools we nearly dominated, but sadly Churchill took it out with a close ending game, the final Score was 13 - 11.

Baradene
Churchill park
Tamaki Intermediate
Ellerslie and that’s about it

Our first game was to Baradene. I play a bit aggressive but they did too. There is good news and bad news. The good new is I never hurt anyone by playing aggressive. The bad news is......... I was getting really impatient and angry at one individual from Churchill park, she would hit my face as if I was like a little doll. BUT it was also hilarious at the same time.

When we played Ellerslie, we won. It was a tough game but we won by a shoot off. Oshania was the person to shoot, she made an outstanding 3 pointer. Really good if you ask me. The girl from Ellerslie, shot an swish (falls in without hitting the ring) in the hoop. It was up to Oshania! The ball went up into the air and back down into the hoop, just like a toilet flush. Man it was FUN.

We won all of our games, BUT lost twice to churchill. Almost winning, we actually lost by 1 goal “we could've had that”  said my mum. As long as you all tried your best that’s ok you still came 2nd anyway. PARTY time I was thinking in my head ! JOKES. :)


I would like to give a big ups to http://pesbrookeg.blogspot.co.nz/ for checking my writing.

Xtra Maths!!

To me Xtra maths is very, very helpful, because I get the chance to get to a higher standard in my maths. I prefer multiplication than the rest I like multiplication  because, it was very challenging to remember it all, but I eventually got there and now I know what 9x8= 72 that took me quite a long time to remember but hey, I got there.

I think this helps you and me, because when you start in Xtramath it gives you 100 questions to answer, starting off at addition to complete your three seconds you must answer before it has been three seconds. As you get better you move on to subtraction same goes for that. Then multiplication, then division. I’ve made it to 1.5 seconds addition soonly gonna start subtraction, I got to this by remembering them and have done a good job of it.

I feel like I need a bit more practise on my maths, it seems like I’m not getting the hang of  1.5 seconds addition.  As you are reading, I am going to need a lot more practice on getting my addition done. In order to do that I want to get my memory working hard and memorize them. Wish me luck.
