Fiafia Night

WOOHOO Its Fiafia Tomorrow!Tomorrows a big day and everyone's going smash it on the stage. I’m totally looking forward to performing in front of Pt England School tomorrow night. The group that I choose to be in was the Kapahaka group. I’m feeling so excited and nervous at the same time, because the Kapahaka group is opening the performances tomorrow at Fiafia. Fiafia this year is going to be great and everyone is going to show their best performance to Pt England School. My culture is Tongan and I was suppose to be in the Tongan group for Fiafia but I decided to try out a New culture group so thats why I choose the Kapahaka group. What I like about Kapahaka is the actions and the singing and right now I am really enjoying the Kapahaka group.

Letter To Miss Berry

Dear Miss Berry,

My name is Finau and I am 11 years old and I go to Pt England School and I’m a year 8 student in Room 4 and this year is my last year of intermediate. In the beginning of the year I was very nervous to come back to school and when I came back to school my friends made me happy. The first day we started school I was very nervous and then the next day of school I really enjoyed it.

I grew up in Auckland and I live in Auckland with my parents, two sisters and my three brothers. My oldest brother past away so it's only my two sisters and my two  brothers that I live with now. Me and my sister would play outside with my puppy sometimes. My puppies name is called Whisky and he's a Male puppy. Whisky is a little cute puppy and he sometimes tries to lick us on our faces like a lollipop.    My sister and I will always have to clean Whisky’s Poo every single day.

When I was 9 years old I started Pt England School. The first day I started school I was so nervous. When I walked into my new classroom I was so nervous and I didn’t really talk to anyone in my classroom but except my teacher Miss Ouano. Miss Ouano was a nice teacher to me she will always make me happy. After that day I made new friends. My new friends were Mahana, May, Paris, Raewen, Melaia, Trinity and Ritua. They were always nice to me when I keep hanging out with them.

My hobbies are listening to music, swimming, playing netball and volley ball. Every weekends I would always love to listen to music through my headphones and play sports but my favourite sports is mostly netball and volley ball. 

 Talofa Lava Bloggers! Here is my letter that I wrote to my Amazing Teacher Miss Berry. Miss Berry is my first new teacher and I'm really enjoying spending times with her in my classroom. This letter is about me and I'm writing this so Miss Berry can get to know me better then her just knowing that I'm a Year 8 Student Girl at Pt England School. 

Hope you enjoy reading my letter and hope you leave me some positive feedback! 

Thank You Very Much Bloggers!!!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

My 2015 Reflections

Kia Ora & Talofa Lava Bloggers! This Week is the second to last week of school and we can't wait until 2016 comes up. We are so GLAD that we got to the end of 2015. We have been thinking about what do we think is gonna happen on 2016. These Question is quite hard to think about, but its really GOOD to answer so you know some really GOOD plans thats happening on 2016.

A. How do you feel about this year?

I feel very happy that I have done amazing work this year

B. What did you find especially satisfying this year?

When the Year 7’s went to Rainbow’s End this year I really felt satisfying.

C. What did you find especially frustrating/difficult this year?

I feel nervous when I go in front of my class and explain some of my learning because it feels a bit difficult when I go up and explain.

D. If you were to give yourself a grade out of 10 - 10 being awesome…what would you grade yourself?

I will give myself a 7/10 because I’m sometimes not on task on my netbook and even when I’m not on my netbook.

E. In what ways did you contribute to team 5 in 2015?

I brought in Gingerbread Men's for our Netball Teams Cake Store Fundraiser to buy us new Netball Gears and Uniforms.

F. What would you change for yourself in 2016?

I will change my behavior because next year the Year 8’s are going to be the Leaders of the School, so I would change my behavior to a Good behavior.

G. What might you want next year’s teacher to know about you (things you’re good at)?

Next Year I would want my teacher to know that I’m really good at using We-Video to put our work as a video.

H. What things might you want more help with?

I will need some help with some of my time tables and fractions.

I. What could you show your teacher from your blog to help her/him understand those things?

Write 1 or 2 paragraphs on your blog about how you solved it or how did you do it.
