Santa Letter

Dear St.Nicholas..

I will be doing this letter for you because I want you to please give me presents for Xmas.

For Christmas I would like -

*Ipad

*My own room

*1pod

*Getting to live over and over again

*Heaps of Jewelry

*Everything

The reason why I deserve presents is because I have been helping out with the chores at home and I try my best in making everyone happy.. I also think I deserve presents because I always do the dishes and I think it’s not fair cause I’m a girl and boys should do the dishes cause the girls help out with the cooking.

The people who don’t deserve presents is -

Joshua because he wastes too much time putting gel on his hair.

Rosalina because shes always late to school,

My Brother Isaiah because hes spends more time playing Playstation instead of helping out and My sister cause she wastes our Internet

I hope you give me presents because I’m cool. Also remember not to give Joshua,Rosalina,Isaiah and Zheiyna their presents because they waste time.

Explaination Writting

I will be doing a piece of writing that will be all about a Church.In My Piece of writing I will be telling you all about,what is a church naming the parts,what is a church used for,why is it important,how is it used and final comments. Also where you can find a church.

A church is a special place for everyone to enter and talk to God,Jesus and Mary.Some churches come in different sizes big,small, and even medium sized churches. In a church you will see alot of Jesus,God and Mary Pictures on a frame hanging on the wall to remind us of a lovely man named Jesus who died on the cross for our sins.

A church can be used for many things like celebrations,confessions,talking to God,farewells and heaps of other things you would imagine using a church for. In a church many people use it for normal masses like everyday especially Sundays. Every Sunday people come to worship God to say special prayers to him.

A church is important to me because it helps me understand more about Jesus,God and Mary. It also helps students to learn more about Religious Education.

A church is also really important because you can go there to receive you Holy communion and you can also talk to the priest about your sins.

A church cam be found all over the world.It can be found in Samoa,Tonga,New Zealand and many more places around the world.Chatholics,Mormans and other religions participate in church masses.

A church is special because it brings people together to show Faith, Hope and Love to one another and to also make people feel like we're all one big family.In a church we treat everyone like our own Brothers & sisters.

I believe a church is a special place more everyone. I hope this helps you understand why a church is special..

Book Review - 3 little pig & the Big Bad Wolf

Author -James Orchard

Title -The 3 little Pigs

What was the book about?

To me this book is about 3 little pigs who try to build there own little houses for them to live in, but the only problem is that they built their houses where the big bad Wolf stays so the Big Bad Wolf decides to destroy all their houses one by one.

What 3 things did you like about the book?

*Firstly I liked how they all had a sad face when the mother said it’s time for them to live on there own because they are big enough. They were so sad to leave their parents thats why they had a sad face.

*Secondly I liked how the Big Bad Wolf blew down the 1st little piggy's house in just one blow, but it was kind of sad for the 1st and youngest piggy.

*Lastly I liked how the Big Bad Wolf was trying his best to blow down the Oldest piggy’s house. He thought he could blow it down in one blow but it didn’t because the oldest piggy’s house was built in bricks. I liked how he was struggling by trying to blow down the oldest piggy’s house.

What was your best part?

While reading this book my best part so far was when he was struggling by trying to blow down the oldest piggy’s house. I liked how he kept trying and trying.

Who was your favourite character?

My favourite character was the 3 little pigs because they were brave and too smart for the Big bad Wolf when building the last house in bricks

Who would you recommend this to?

The person I would recommend this to is Rosalina because she is sometimes brave at school and anywhere. She’s also smart..



Cyclone Lusi

What is a Cyclone - A cyclone is a time when it starts to rain lots and also it’s also a really heavy wind that can knock things down and damage things outside your house.Cyclone Lusi has hit New Zealand with heavy rain and strong winds that has destroyed people’s houses.

When did cyclone Lusi hit New Zealand - Cyclone Lusi started to hit New Zealand on Saturday 15 March 2014. It brang us lots of rain and wind.

Introduction :)

When people were updating me about cyclone Lusi hitting New Zealand I was really scared because I didn’t know if it will be really long or it might of been a short cyclone.When my whole family heard about the cyclone we all started to clean all our washing before cyclone Lusi started to arrive New Zealand.We all started to pull out our warm clothes and we just waited for Cyclone Lusi to arrive New Zealand.



Bullying

Bully

Today I’m going to write to you about bullying. A bully is a person that does something to make someone feel bad.

The effects of being bullied causes people to be depressed and angry or even worse. If it gets taken too far they could hurt themselves.

Some of the reasons why people bully other people is because they might be jealous of another person they know.Another reason why they do it is because they get really angry so they want to take their anger out on someone else and they might want your attention.

There are different ways people bully people, they bully them from their mouth or from their actions. They say stuff like you ugly your mum and dad’s fat, they do it just to make you feel sad and they also want reactions from the person they are bullying.

A really good reason for bullying to stop is by ignoring them whenever they try to follow or say bad stuff about you..

Bullying should really stop

During The Holidays I really enjoyed playing Basketball with my best friend Rosalina, Samasoni, Virginia and My brother Isaiah.. We always cheated and laughed randomly..

We also enjoyed playing rugby, piggy in the middle and going to the beach when it was hot we always went to the beach... It was so cool over the holidays, I spent lots of time with my friends everyday. I wish to have the same holiday This year...

Narrative Writing

On a beautiful day Cathy planned on having a picnic through the forest with her best friend Julz. They wanted to spend time together because they did not see each other very often.  They only saw each other after school or before school. So they Packed their stuff and off they went through the forest.

While they were walking through the forest they heard a little sound coming from inside a spiky bush, Cathy and  Julz were very scared because they didn't know if it was a scary monster or something else. So Cathy and Julz played I dare you!, Cathy landed a scissors and Julz landed a paper. “Yes I win” screamed Cathy. So Julz went and looked what was in the bush, when she looked in the bush she screamed out OMG. Cathy saw a Little ginger kitten who was really hurt and he needed to go to the vet or the hospital. So they went to the vet to check what was wrong with the Kitten. They found out that the kittens paw was broken so they put some kind of cream on it and wrapped it with a cast and went and carried on with their picnic and lived happily ever after.

My Holidays

During my holidays it was really cool because I got to spend more time with my brother Phoenix He always plays with me whenever I want to play with him. He always teaches me how to play Hockey even though my brother has had alot of injuries. I also got to spend alot of time with my dad and play Basketball outside with him and enjoy the hot steaming sunshine. I wish that I could have a more exciting holidays with my family.

My Life In Room 6 :)

In room 6 it was very sad because we had to sadly swap teachers because Miss Leaupepe got a position at the National Library.

During school my life in room 6 is like I’m  in a zoo at different times like maths, writing, reading and even S.S.R.

I like having a pacific and sporty teacher named Mr Slade he likes to teach us a lot of Geometry  shapes and the mostly Fractions.

In room 6 everyone’s behaviour changes when we move on to each subject in class. Also when we have a reliever they don’t listen to instructions and then they give the teacher a hard time teaching us.

We like to learn new interesting facts about our countries India, Japan, Thailand also China. We like to look for it’s Climate, Geography, landmarks, culture, history and it’s population. I love to read lots and do plays with my reading group and my teacher Mr. Slade.

I Love to learn new things with my teacher Mr Slade and I wish to learn more interesting things.

Changing Teachers

Today the whole of Saint Pius X school had a whole school mass with father Iosevo our new priest to farewell room6’s coolest teacher: Miss Leaupepe. Miss Leaupepe’s last day is today because she has a new job at the National Library at Parnell, Miss Leaupepe has really been the coolest teacher this year but it is very sad that she is leaving us today but I wish her all the best for her new job. God Bless You Miss Leaupepe, Take Care

Our new teacher that will be replacing Miss Leaupepe is Mr. Slade. He is Miss Leaupepe’s close friends from when Miss Leaupepe was teaching Saint Josephs school. I am really looking foward for learning heaps and heaps with Mr. Slade. 

Term 2 Reflection

In Term 2, my highlights were having the 100 day party because everyone brang in something that represents 100.

My other highlight for this term was having the 3 way conference with  Miss Leaupepe and my auntie, because when Miss Leaupepe was talking to my auntie about my report my auntie said that she was very proud of me at the end of the interview.

My lowlights for term 2 is singing practise because when we have to go into room 7 we just sit there and it is very hot and also there is not that much space to move around. Another lowlight for this term is Music because we do not have a lot of time to have a class band or play ukuleles, because alot of people are wasting time.

In Term 3 I’m looking forward to learning heaps with my teacher Miss Leaupepe and other students. Also I am looking forward to having a great start for Term 3.

Alex Fala’s Visit :)

Alex Fala :) Slideshow: Monique’s trip to Auckland was created with TripAdvisor TripWow!

On a cold windy day after lunch time a visitor from LesMills named Alex came to talk to us about how he became successful in his job.

After lunch time Alex came into room6 to talk to us about his life adventure and his journeys, before Alex started introducing himself we started of with out school prayer.

When we finished the prayer Alex started introducing himself by telling us his about his culture. He told us he was from Samoa and his dad lives in a small village in Samoa. After he told us about his culture we asked him has anybody discouraged you and he said “not really!!. Another question we asked Alex was what sort of advice would you give a student when he/she ask to be like you, he’ll just tell you to follow your dreams and Never give up.

When everybody finished telling questions to Alex he gave a bag of prizes to Miss leaupepe to hand out to the class whoever has the most votes. I wish Alex would be able to visit room6 again and tell us more about his life and journey. Alex told room6 some of the best things about his adventure and his journey I wish he could come back again.!

Jonny Wartman Visit?

Make your own photo slideshow at Animoto.

“Yay!” I said as soon as Miss Leaupepe said that Jonny Wartman is coming over to Room6 to tell us how he became successful.

After lunch time Jonny Wartman came over to room6 and started introducing himself, but before he introduced himself we started of with the school prayer. After we sang our school prayer he started introducing himself to Room6.

Jonny Wartman said that when he was a little kid he was interested in graffiti, so he would sit in front of the tv and watch cartoons and he said after he watches the cartoons he would always go and draw pictures of the cartoon that he watched. He started telling us about how he became successful in his job. Jonny told us if you wish to be like him you just have to follow your dreams and never give up and try your best and believe in yourself.

Jonny Wartman took Room6 outside and he stuck a big canvas paper on the brick wall and asked Miss Leaupepe what should he draw, so he thought of it and he drew a nice tropical beach image. So while he was drawing the image he was telling us that we should not stay close to him while he is drawing because the chemicals in the spray are very strong. Jonny was drawing a very nice picture with a lot of colourful colours, while he was drawing the whole of Room7 came out of the class and watched with us too. Jonny Wartman really inspired me to do graffiti. I hope one day I will become a graffiti artist like him in the future.

After his picture Lose thanked him for coming to our school and telling us about his adventures and journey and how he became successful. Then everyone went to class and Dalaney stayed with Jonny Wartman and showed him his book of drawing and was talking with him while everyone was in class.

It was a beautiful day and exciting day for Jonny Wartman to come. I wish Jonny Wartman would be able to come and visit Saint Pius X school again and maybe he might be able to draw us a bigger picture next time.

Thank You letter Mrs Wright

Dear Mrs, Wright
Thank you very much for my new book you have given to me to have, I really appreciate it.

My favourite book is Taylor Swift’s book which is very interesting to me, I enjoy reading all her books, I also like listening to her songs she makes. My favourite part from the book is when she goes up and performs her song on stage to everyone. My funniest part from the book is when a girl cried from seeing Taylor Swift.

Thank you very much Mrs Wright for the books you have given to me to read. Remember “It’s cool to read and it’s cool to succeed”. Thank you very much for the books you have given to my class and to all the teachers and to everyone. I have really enjoyed every book I have received.

Yours sincerely,
Monique
