The first week of school

The first week of school was when the year sixes were on camp so the year fives had to go to room six because the room five teacher had gone to camp. When I got to school I unpacked my stationary that I had brought from home. On my table were my friends Meredith and Ruby and there were also two boys named Aidan and Matthew. We started with prayers. Our prayer leaders were my friends Jiwoo and Ruby. More into the day we did a lot of get to know you games and activities. We started doing art which was our koru art. I chose the colours purple and yellow. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday were all the same and we continued to play games, activities and our Koru art. Friday was so much fun, at fitness we had a race. For the boys Dean came first. For the girls I came first and against the whole class Dean came first and I came second. At the end of the day we had a game called Octopus.

My pepeha

Ko Maungawhau tōku maunga
Ko Te moana-nui-a-kiwatōku moan
Ko Aotearoa tōku iwi
Nō Tamaki-Makaurau ahau
Ko Te Hepara Pai tōku kura
Ko Maria tōku mama
Ko Patrick tōku papa
Ko Faith Gribble tōku ingua

My mantra

JUST KEEP SWIMMING
I chose this mantra because Finding Dory is one of my favourite movies but it also keeps motivating me to keep on going and trying harder and harder until I get it right.

Poem about Alana

Here is a poem about my best friends Alana I did it for fun because I like to write poems



          I have a friend her name is Alana,
          She is the best, she likes bananas,
          But sometimes when she eats bananas, 
          she will go woo hoo a lama.
