Then we sang Warm Pacific Greetings After that Michael Wood came up and talked about opening our new class rooms then our principal Ms Peterson came up and she was talking about taking along time to come to these new buildings. After that we sang Aotearoa Then a student Conroy calls up Michael Wood to cut the ribbon and open our new buildings It was so fun that we moved in these buildings. In side these buildings there were colours and it was colourful the class rooms were called Hauraki Waitemata and Manakau there were box that where you can put your stuff in side your box.     

My blog Audience

Today room 7 did Cyber Smart with Jarad. We went on Ako Hiko page and had to go on to another class page and find a photo of one of their class blogs. I then made a blog audience chart, showing all the people that can see my work. This includes my family, people from my culture / church. My teachers. My peers (school mates). My friends and my class.

Matariki

Matariki

The week room 7 is leaning about Matariki there some facts and photos.  

     Matariki is the Māori name for the star cluster known as the Pleiades. Traditionally for Māori when it appeared just before dawn in late May or early June, it signalled the start of the Māori New Year. For some tribes, the rising of Puanga (Rigel in Orion) signals the start of the New Year.     

                                                  

I was so nervous that I was going to drop the ball since my mates passes it at me. The ball felt like it as going so slowly as it came towards me. Then I see a boy start to jump towards the ball. Then I here go Hame go Hame the jump to and then I get the and I see a gap in the side line and I burst through the side and then I see a boy chasing me and I see the try line the I dive for the try. After that I did an impossible try and then the crowd shout for me and then I run to the crowd.

My Rippa Rugby Experience

During the first term two Waikowhai Rippa teams went to Cox's park to compete in the Central Mixed Rippa Competition.

Waikowhai 1 won our three games 4-2, 9-2 and 8-4 and qualified for the quarterfinals where we played against Halsey Drive 1  Beating them 6-3. Waikowhai 2 also qualified for the quarter finals winning 2 of their 3 games but unfortunately they lost in the quarterfinals but they did amazingly well.

In the semifinals Waikowhai 1 played 3 time defending champions…Bay Field scoring the winning try in just before the final hooter winning a tough exciting game 8-7. Meaning Waikowhai 1 were in the finals against Dominion Rd Primary School  Tau’s new school.

In the finals Waikowhai 1  battled it out in our hardest game of the day with the scores tied 8 all at the final whistle. But because we scored the first try the mighty Waikowhai 1  won the whole tournament for the first time in the school's history. Now we are going to Eden park to play, to become Auckland champions  against only 4 other teams from the Auckland.  We hope that you can come and support us in our mission.

Here is a video of me playing. Please feel fee to leave a comment.
