exploding a moment

With the rā shining on us exitement excitement filled our bodies as We lined up ready to rēhi .  Swarleen,Cairo, and I got on a iata and got in the line with all the other yachts. “Go” miss Bartlett yelled from the sandy shore.  Everyone pushed and shoved and crashed into each other. Smash! someone crashed into our boat. People were splashing kātao everywhere and we were getting soaked.  There was a big pile of iata and we were part of it. We tried our best to escape but we had no luck and started going backwards but then we got pushed out by all the boats. We were of to the moutere. Paddling as hard and as in time as we could we passed another boat.  As we got closer and closer to the island there were three boats already there and we had to come fourth.  We were going really fast now. “4th place” Aj called as we reached the rocky island.

Blue colour poem

Blue

Blue is divers searching for treasure under the swift sea.

Blue is an elegant swan gliding calmly across a freezing lake

Blue is baby blue candy floss dissolving into nothing in my mouth within seconds

Blue tastes like sour blueberries packed in a  basket ready for a picnic in the warm sunshine.

Blue smells like a single bluebell growing from the ground below ready to start life.

Blue sounds like soothing rain pattering on my window sill while i’m fast asleep.

Blue feels like a blue gel pen scribbling on a piece of paper everything and anything.

Blue makes me feel like a ball of blue confetti ready to burst out.

ocean spa holiday moment

Talking and driving were happening during driving to the pool.  We drove and we drove until it felt like an age.  We finally arrived so māmā parked the whero car and we all got out and walked speedily to the entrance.  While walking the shivering cold kōkō pinched my skin making it as cold as ice.  When the wha of us walked in the clear diamond like doors it felt like the rā had been squashed inside the building.  Me and mum split up from my dad and teina and went into the right changing room.  When all of us got out we had magically changed into togs and was heading rāwaho.  My dad and teina walked over to the ocean spa pools while me and mum sat down for a while warm towels wrapped around our shivering body.  We ate some gooey chocolate brownies before we went in the pool.  When we were done I walked speedily to the pools while my mum was behind me.

When we all were in the pool we swam for an hour in the warm nice kātao.  I swam as swift as an eagle in the sparkling blue water. The water sparkled in the sunshine.  I relaxed in the warm light blue clear water.  I played with my brother he wrestled me and it felt like a blur full of bubbles when I was underwater.  With my blue goggles I could see everything under the water.

As we slowly got out I slowly felt colder and colder and colder.  I rushed to my towel and wrapped it around my frozen body.  We walked slowly to the changing rooms and got dressed into some warm clothes for me that was leggings and a jersey.  As we walked out the clear doors and walked towards the red car we talked about the things we did at the pool and then started driving to breakers for dinner.       

My goals

My story

Whāia te iti kahurangi, ki te tuohu koe me maunga teitei.

Pursue that which is precious and do not be deterred by anything less than a lofty mountain.

I got the koha (gift) of life on a normal Mane (Monday)afternoon…but this wasn’t a normal monday afternoon.  at 2:00 pm Māmā (Mum) went into labour with me that afternoon.  After I was born I had lots of people come to visit me almost all my Whanau (family).  Then I was allowed to go home.  My mum and dad lived in a flat but after my brother was born on the 8th of may 2010 we bought a new house.

I grew up in Hastings and have lived here all my life.  Our whare (house) is tekau (ten) minutes away from town and is a few blocks away from the kura (school) and our whare (house) is also close by  to frimley park. We know our neighbours well and our neighbours foster puppies so we can go to their whare (house) to play with the puppies.

My dad was born in Hehitingi (hastings) is well and he was born on christmas day. My mum was born in the philippines and she was born on new years.  They are hard workers my mum is a nurse at the hastings hospital and she works really late from toru (three) in the afternoon till midnight but she has an hour break for dinner where she comes home. and my dad is an administrator and his work is really close to our whare (house) it is just behind the hospital and he works from 8 in the morning till 4 in the afternoon.  

My whanau (family)  is very important to me.  Every member of my family has taught me something about   who I am today! In my whanau I have got my mum Sirean and dad Jason my brother Paolo who goes to frimley kura (school) and is in rm9  i have also got some pets which i have got 6 cats called gem, bailey,jack,jill ,mr grey and my neighbours cat ruby who we feed anyway because when we feed our cats she waiting on the table outside so we feed her and after shes she’s eaten she comes into our house to sleep so our neighbours said we could keep her.

 

Another thing that is important to me is where I grew up which is in frimley in hastings.  I have lived in Frimley since I was 2.  I lived close to everybody in my family including aunties and uncles and cousins.  And there are heaps of exiting exciting  things close to frimley.

My goal for this year is to have a growth mindset with my mahi especially maths which is the hardest subject for me.  To have a growth mindset I will:

Practise at home until I understand it

I wont give up.

Those are the 2 two things that I will do to have a growth mindset.

Star gazer

Star gazer

Ever since Peter was a young tane, he was fasinated fascinated with glisning glistening stars, holy moons, comets, and pretty much anything to do with the world above.

So as he stood on the glass like surface of the kikorangi, freezing lake, wrapped up well from the bitter coldness of his surroundings Peter saw something extrodinery extraordinary through his metal telescope. Had he ever seen something so magical.  It was moments like these that he truly felt alive.

 It was a wonderful sight it was a magical blur in the dark night sky.  There were mawheros, kikorangis , kakarikis, and karakas and they all came together to make the most brilliant sight any human being could possibly see.

  As the giant warm coloured ra came into view, the magnificent scene started to fade away.  The purple, orange, pinks, and greens floated around the colour changing sky. It slowly turned into light blue to camouflage in the cloudy sky to start the new day.
