Samoa Trip

Day 1 - 12/6/18

This morning I woke up at 5:30 am to get ready. We left on the taxi at 6:15 it was a struggle to fit all the suitcases in the taxi. We got at the airport around about 6:45 we had to wait until 8:45. When we got on the plane we got to play games watch movies and we got free breakfast the flight was 3 hours and 30 minutes. We finally arrived it was so hot I took off my jumper straight away. The resort was 30 minutes from the airport. The resort was really nice it had a pool. I spent the whole afternoon swimming and playing with my cousins and family. My room was flash and the beds are comfy. I have had a good first day and I can't wait until tomorrow.  

Day 2 - 13/6/18

Today was so fun. In the morning I went to a breakfast buffet I ate one pancake two banana smoothie scrambled eggs and lots of bacon. Then we went swimming in the pool at the resort it was fun. It was lots of fun but we went to another pool it was called piula caves (cave pool) we went swimming there, it was cool and fresh water there were fish in there and at the end the fish circled me it was cool. Then we went to the papaseea rock slide it was so hard and cool also scary it was scary because we went down a hill then off a ledge into the water. there was a FiaFia show this guy put fire in his mouth and his hands it was so cool.

Day 3 - 14/6/18

Today was fun. It was a chill day at the resort we swam all day and I loved it. I swam with my cousins, nana, papa, aunty, dad and Lilly. I went to a restaurant with my family it was yum.

Day 4 - 15/6/18

Today was great. We went on a boat/ferry to savaii in Samoa it took 1 hour we had lots of fun there. First of all we went to the first church in Samoa and we learnt about John Williams he is famous for bringing the christianity to Samoa. Then we went to a field of old lava the rocks were as fragile a glass. After that we went  to swimming with turtles it was fun I touched four turtles there food made you itchy. After that we went to a rainforest but you had to climb up spiral stairs then you had to cross a wobbly bridge thenn steep stairs just to take a photo on Samoa’s biggest tree. Then we went to a big waterfall it was clear water because it was fresh water there were shrimp there it was fun. Then we went to the market it was boring. The ferry took 2 hours to get back to the main island of Samoa. Then we got back to the resort and had dinner then went to bed.

Matariki Arts Rotation

By Lorenzo

Yesterday was awesome there were heaps of pulses the pulses are the positives and the minuses are the negatives  and interesting but I loved the pluses. This was a very fun way to learn we went from class to class it was super duper fun!!!. Imagine going to very class in the senior group have you imagined yet?.

Here are some pluses of the rotations. The  plus is going and winning the first game of hit the barrel it was 11-4 to my team it was hard but fun. Another one was I finished one big star and one small star it was challenging.

Here are some minuses/negatives of the rotation. A minus was the kite making because my team was not communicating. My first game of hit the barrel it was 11-4 to my team it was hard but fun, Another minus was at hit the barrel I barely got the ball it was starting to get boring.

Here are some interesting moments in the Tuakana Triangle. An interesting moment is the kite making because I have never made a kite and I loved it. Another interesting moment was the game it was really challenging and I had never done it.

My most challenging moment was the kite because I’m really bad at tying knots it was also my greatest success because we did it and I'm happy about it.

Yesterday was fun I loved it I wish It would never end with all the pluses and interesting and minuses.

Here is me playing hit the barrel guy with blue hoodie behind Noah
