40 Hour Famine

This year I participated in the 2016 40 hour famine I am currently doing this a I write to you. My favourite part so far was the team items I was the only person in my team who only had one person, sadly I was that person so I performed with the teachers. My song was My Boo by: Ghost town djs and we did the running man challenge it was awesome.

My group 'Red' came 2nd it was sad but congratulations to the Green team. We have done Karaoke, Dance,play basketball and chill out in the library, soon we will be sleeping in boxes for a few minutes. Next year will be even better.

Matuari Bay

Walt: recognise and understand the connections between oral, written and visual language.
       Crystal clear day.

Staring out to the crystal blue ocean not being able to wait I dove into the water splashing around and around. “Matauri Bay what an awesome place!!” I whispered. It was time for us to climb the mountain. We were nearly there but I couldn't go any further my legs were sore, my pits felt sweaty and the air was hot I yelled “Can we have a quick break please!” Fully 100% again we finally made it to the top “yay!!!”. The next day came around “Get up Cameo were going jet skiing today” my mum yelled. Hopping out of bed I Began to run around grabbing everything I need then I realised there was no one in the house?

Staring at the beach I saw my family “I must have slept in” I thought. I got into the car with mum then we happily drove down the road to the beach. Later on we went diving and caught heaps like Kina, Paua, Mussels, Oyster and loads more. I couldn't wait for it I ended up eating some on the way back to the house. Dinner soon came and it was delicious we had Battered snapper with potato salad and eggs. The next day was a pain we had to leave I couldn’t bare saying goodbye but I had to “goodbye Matauri bay!!” Next time it will be even better, we’ll go to the waterfall and get ice cream it will be a nice ride.👋👋👋👋👋👋

In this writing task I wrote a narrative about the beautiful beach Matauri bay. My task was to Show not tell.

I didn't complete this the way I wanted but I got close.

I luminate

Walt: write a recount with correct punctuation and grammar

Have you ever watched a hip hop group, In the dark? I luminate performed for my school and it was on fleek. I luminate wears costumes that are all black and they have LED lights all through them. When i luminate started dancing to the music everyone watching were just shocked and we all screamed happily.

It was an ordinary day then all of a sudden we had something “special” in the hall waiting for us after lunch. Turns out these three people are extraordinary and awesome at what they do. I luminate is an amazing dance group, my school was so amazed that throughout the whole thing everyone was just screaming.

I luminate came from america so they had a long journey. I was so excited, I even got one of their autographs. If I get the opportunity I would totally go to america just to see them.

In this task I wrote about an awesome performance that happened. I saw so many fun and cool things during

this event.

Fun week Yr 7

Walt: write a recount about the last week of term 1.

It was the last Wednesday of the term and The year 8s Left for camp. Once the year 8s had left for their travel to Marsden bay, Ms Muliaumasealii announced that we would be watching a movie called ‘From Boyz 2 Men’ but the cool thing about it was not only did Ms Muliaumasealii act in it but she helped backstage to film and edit. We didn’t watch the whole movie at once so after lunch that day we watched it close to the end and we ate caramel and buttered popcorn.

It was day number two of the year 7 fun week and I was into school early morning to help organise everything along with other leaders. In the morning block Sulieti, Anahere and I were cutting leighs to get the flowers, unfortunately It was morning tea so I played with my best friend Dezarae and Daniella and we played last card, after a few games the bell rang and I had to leave school.

I had said my goodbyes and I went home with my mum. For lunch my mum and I went to ‘my bakery’ and we got some hot chips then we went to the bakery by my house and got some pies then we went home and ate about half an hour later we travelled to papakura where my grandparents house was, picked up to of my uncles and then we headed to Mangere College for my nana's farewell ( she was the P.E and dance teacher ). After that we stopped at mangere bridge for a few minutes then we headed to the airport, once I got to the airport I went in to greet my koro later we went to McDonald's for dinner then it was time to go.

I really enjoyed last term but it went really fast. Everything that happened was all just awesome I hope to have more experiences next time. My highlight last term was definitely the last week of the term it was such an action packed week I loved it.
