Week 6 Reflection

My highlight for this week was when we had our guest speaker, their name was Terssa and Clint. I enjoyed it because they're taught us lots of fun things even when I didn’t win a prize We got taught about what kind of doctors are there, there are physiotherapist,dentist,nurse,speech therapist and doctors.

My lowlights was when we had all of the singing practice because it was boring and long and sometimes my legs are numb and sore.

I am looking forward to swim again because I miss swimming.

Michelle's Visit

 

On Friday we had a guest speaker who spoke to us about how she became successful she is a DJ, sound engineer she is a Cook Islander and a presenter at Nui Fm. Her name is Michelle newton. She came to visit us because we were learning about being successful and how we could become successful. She said “I became a successful person because I studied hard and I listened to my teacher.”

When we put up our hands someone told Michelle to do her mother impression. When she did that it was funny, we were all laughing. I laughed so hard that I was crying. She was here for an hour so that was pretty long. She has 2 dogs, one is a pitbull and the other one was a rottweiler. When we put our hands up someone asked if she was bullied, but she said “no but we should bullying, if you are bullied go and tell a grown up” That was good advice.

When it was over we took some photos. First we had to smile then after we, we made funny faces, I closed my eyes and smiled funny. After that she went and she got us sticker and bookmarks.

My favourite part was when she was doing her impression, that was funny. It was a fun day.

Cathoilc Shools Day

21st of May was Catholic Schools Day. The school that visited us was St Joseph, it was full of palagis. After morring tea we had mass, St Joseph was sitting between us. There were two priests but I forgot the priests names.

After mass we had an early lunchtime. It looked like we had shared lunch but we didn’t and Aurora, Lezabelle and I didn’t have any space so we had to sit inside the shelter. I was eating chips, Aurora was eating peanut butter and jelly sandwich and Lezabelle was eating a ham sandwich. Lezabelle was finished first so she was hurrying Aurora and I. So when we finished eating Lezabelle was rushing us to get a friend from St Joseph.

But Aurora and I was too shy so I said “We will wait for a girl from St Joseph to come to the field.” So Aurora and I went to the field. By the time we got to the field we saw a girl by herself so we ran to her and said “Hello what is your name?” and she said “My name is Emily.” So she gave me her badge to tell everyone that I have a buddy from St Joseph. So I said to Emily “ My name is Ierei.” and Aurora said “And my name is Aurora.” So we went to play. We went up the hill and we were thinking of a game so Emily said “Lets play tag” and Aurora and I said “Sure!” Emily tagged me and they were running down the hill, I was really puzzled. So I ran down the hill laughing and I was running and I was trying to get Emily until Aurora went past me and I was too busy chasing Aurora.

When we finsing playing tag Aurora and I was resting up the top of the hill, Aurora and I was huffing and puffing, I was so tired that I thought I was going to die, but Emily wasn’t tired so she went and said “I will go and find another buddy but I am still your buddy.” So I said to Emily “Okay.” So Emily went. Then Aurora and I was looking for an another buddy and that will be Aurora’s buddy. We were walking to get Aurora a buddy until I had to go to Joseph (he is my nephew) so I went to Joseph and I left Aurora there to find a buddy. After I talked with Joseph I saw Aurora with this girl from St Joseph and Aurora wearing a budge. So when I went to Aurora she was taking to the girl, then Aurora introduced Georgia and I said “Nice to see you, my name is Ierei.” So we shook hands. Aurora and I went her around the school, after the we showed Georgia around the school we went to the park and asked her some question like how big is your classroom and she said “is bigger than your guys classroom.” When we were finished taking the bell rang and Aurora,Georgia and I was running to our classroom and we were saying bye to each other.

When we were lining up outside room 6 and Miss Leaupepe came out and pointed to the hall because it was the concert and we all lined up there outside the hall. We went inside the hall and waiting for everyone to settle down. Genavive was taking. First was room 7 singing their song, their song were called Let It Go. After Room 7 was finish it was the whole school from St Joseph. They were singing Count On Me by Bruno Mars. When they were finished Room 3 went up and did the Cup Song but in a different way. It was cool when they were finished it was Room 3 in St Joseph they were doing a Maori song, it was pretty short but still it was pretty awesome. When they were done room 7 was doing a song again but it was the ukulele people they were doing I’m Yours Jason Macrs when they started everyone was singing to it because it was a sing a long. When everyone was finish Mr Coakley came up to have a speech. It took ages but still I was listening. When Mr Coakley finish speaking St Joseph had to go so when they were going out the hall we sang a African blessing song called Hamba Gashie. When we were finish we had to go back to our classes, but when we went inside the our classroom we did a little learning and we went to clean up the classroom. It was a really fun day.
