Kia Ora, Welcome back to my blog! Its Term 2, This week my literacy class, the warriors group and others from the panthers have been doing podcast.( well this was supposed to be done last term ) We are learning about an interesting topic which is about a version of cricket, Kilikiti a Samoan version of cricket. check out this video above to watch me and my podcast partners Junior and Adrianne. I hope you’ll learn something! and what is your opinion on Kilikiti?
౨ৎ⋆ ˚｡KIA Ora! Welcome back to my blog, It’s now Term 2!! Our 2 week holiday comes to an end, but honestly I’m really excited for this terms inquiry focus or Theme. Which is Transformers! All about Drama, the good drama of course not the nasty one. I’m really thrilled to learn about the elements of drama and obviously acting! I find acting really fun since you get to express yourself and pretend/dress up. In this Immersion assembly we got to see five amazing and interesting presentations from each team, I’d say all of them were hilarious and entertaining. But the one that really stand out for me was Team 5’s play. It was a funny version of Cinderella It had some elements accurate to the Original story line but adding an own twist. Our team 5 teachers executed this play so well and the plot twist was a shocker/surprising. There are parts where in a transition they use a scene where they engage with the audience including us while the cast prepares for the next scene. My favourite scene was when the prince chop’s off the ugly sisters head, it was very good acting and unexpected. Overall I think this play is really one of a kind! I look forward to this term and what awesome things we will be doing and learning about.
౨ৎ⋆ ˚｡Kia Ora, welcome back to my blog! Its now week 11, and I have finally finished my DLO for this term.

It also includes 3 fun facts about me (mentioning why I attended Pt.England), I hope you’ll like my work and enjoy!

✮KIA Ora, Welcome back to my blog!, This Friday the 1st of December. Its Week 8! there is 1/2 weeks left of school!moving on this Term our theme was “Make it work” it was on the building and creating side, So our Inquiry activity/project for this term was to create something to make our Pt.England life better, My group (Me, Jeyda, Adrianne, Perseus, Kisa and Kasaline) decided to make benches, because there is not much seating area .But we’re going to change that we are going to make a seat/benches for people to sit on at morning tea and lunch times. In this video documented or we included everything we did to make our project a success ( this project took us a good 7 weeks to finish), This video includes planning,preparing, building and more! Check it out!!
My reflection: This term inquiry activity made me realise a bunch of things and learned a lot of things in the process like: Teamwork, Working with a team can be hard because sometimes it can lead to miscommunication, Can’t decide whether what to do, decision making, but in the end you and your team are able to talk it out and figure it all out together. This Inquiry activity has taught me and my group the importance of working together and patience because in my Perspective we struggled on agreeing on the same thing. But In the end I think My group did an amazing and great work for this project. ✮
✮Dear, future self✮
Hi Future self! I am writing this letter on 27/11/23. I am currently a 12 year old, grade 7 girl in Nz, How are you doing? I hope you’re doing just fine.
I hope you’re still the humorous, cheerful,enthusiastic,Risk taking and intelligent person your past self was. I hope you have gotten Stronger knowing about the pain you went through ,wiser and more confident than how I am right now.I look forward to seeing the achievements I will achieve in the future, knowing that I am a high academic achiever. I intend on seeing progress in myself, your past self would be delighted to know that you took care of your mental health and physical self. If not I hope you find the importance of self care that I wish to improve on myself.Knowing in this present day I am carefree and mostly insecure about myself.I am really hoping that I get taller in the future because it’s not easy being short . I hope you still have the same interest as you have in the past like your passion in Art, Your likes in Anime and dragon books. And if you have a new interest it’s all good because growing up you changed perspective on things.
Now let’s talk more about what I like right now so we can compare them when I get older! You currently like the colour pastel blue, You love listening to Filipino pop music and to new jeans( which is one of the famous k-pop groups trending this generation!) You enjoy eating noodles and tteok. You like playing volleyball, badminton and netball. In general I have ambitions to be a flight attendant or a nurse in the future , but before that you originally wanted to be a lawyer because you wanted justice. Maybe reading it from now you will be
laughing because maybe you will have more knowledge on how the world really works .
Currently you love doing maths and your school life is a blast because you finally found friends( Leata, Bonnie, Kisa, Adrianne, Mckaelyn, Victoria, Kensi, Jeyda, Perseus) who are there for you and has the same interest as you, I hope you can find some good friends in the future, remember be friends with people who will lead you in the good side not in the bad side.
I know life will be hard in our generation knowing there are a lot of problems our lovely earth is facing but I hope in the future generation us, We will find a solution to fix the problem that our elders have made.
In the present day today you are in Nz for a better life but remember where you come from where you started“ ang minamahal mong Pilipinas ipagalaki mo ang iyong cultura “, Don’t be ever ashamed of your country because it makes you different from the others.
One more thing I want to say to you, Always be yourself. I know you will be reading this when your 16.That’s all
,Xoxo your past-self
