Kapa Haka 2021 !!

 KAPA HAKA 2021

I rushed through the school gates with my hair blowing through the wind.  I was sad that parents couldn't watch this year ,well only online. I started to grabbed my bodics/ Kapa Haka dress to get changed into. After I was rushed into getting changed and then  I decided to chill because it was only 8:05am. I grabbed a bright yellow feather and my friend Lila put the feather into my half up half down hairstyle. Next Koka Jo but on my moko and black lipstick, then I was ready!      

My hands were rumbling like a volcano about to arup! I had butterflies in my stomach but luckily I knew I was trained well by Koka Jo. I was even more nervous went the flimer said " ACTION." But I knew I would get over it. Our first song was Utaina Mai, and it's one of my favorites. Next was Ka waitia. Then it was the girls poi called Rona. This is the song before the boys do their Haka and it's called Kapanapana. In that song all the girls move to the back and then boys come to the front to do the Haka. It's only called the boys Haka. Our Last and final song is Toia Mai. 

We were finally done. The video had to be edited before people could see it. I wish it didn't have to be edited. I hope you liked hearing about Wainui Beach Schools 2021 Kapa Haka!!  

ILMINSTER GREEN TEAM PLAY

 Ilminster Green Team Play

Can you tell me if you have gone to Ilminster to see there green team play? I can tell you I have, and i'm going to tell you all about it. So as you can tell by the title my class MLH went to Ilminster to watch there play. They were trying to convince us why we should quiet littering. 

 Firstly they told us what the very exciting, convincing play was about. As soon as I found out what the play was about, I was eager to find out more. Wouldn't you be too? They started there play that they had been rehousing from midterm two. Now let's get on with the rest of the play.

They started by the little pawa and the crayfish telling a story to the two little baby crayfish. Soon it was the little baby crayfishes bedtime. But one didn't listen and got one story from the crayfish. The story was about aliens that came from trash planet and trash the earth. And in the end earth was back to being clean. 

Here are some photos. 

     

  

Writing Sample

 Writing Sample

On Monday we did a writing sample on It is not right to fight. You could disagree or agree. I was stuck in the middle so what I mean is, I couldn't decide on what one to write so I did both of them. I ended up doing 6 paragraphs and almost 4 pages. I thought that was really good. What about You?   We also had to try to persuade our reading into agreeing with our decision. 

I hope you liked reading my blog post.   

Finding out what is the type of writing feature

 Finding Out What Is The Type Of Writing Feature 

Today in our reading workshop my group was challenged to complete finding out what kind of feature we had in our book.  My group had a poem called Practising for my film audition.  My group was a group of 3. We found out soon enough  that our book was about poetry.  

Poetry is about Rhyming, Alliteration, it can always be creative. And I also know that all of these mean it is a poem. A poem can be true but usually if it's true its about seasons, Ocean. And lot's of other things.
