The people in my group were Tiare, Aotea, Waikeri, Kalel and me. He gave us some options and we had to pick and the end we used all of our money and came second for how many fun points we got. Our fun points were (16). I enjoyed listening to Marlon.   

Duffy assembly

Yesterday before lunch some visitors came to our school named Taylor and Reuben. Came and instead of reading, they got some of the kids from school to act out a book. And the people that were acting were, Kihani, Kalel, Braeth, Reitu, and maybe another five boys. Kihani was Maui Kalel was the sun Braeth and the other five boys were Maui’s brothers. After they acted out the story of Maui they asked if anybody had any questions. Taylor and Reuben were asked a couple questions about books. Then to end the time we had with them our school did a waiata and Nelly said a thank you to them. I enjoyed watching the show.

Holiday recount!

My sisters, Cousins, and I went to Pukenui at the campsite. When my family and I first got to Pukenui we went to honey bees to have breakfast. After that, we went to the park and then went to the campsite. And waited till it was eleven so we could go to our cabin. We were at our cabin and we saw our cousins. My sisters, cousins and I got changed into our togs and went to the pools. Then we met some friends to play spotlight with. When we got to our cabin we had some food, After that we all went to the ocean, And had a swim for maybe 15 minutes. It was cold and my body felt numb, For the rest of the day, we went to the pools. Then when it was six we went to have fish and chips for dinner by the four square. An hour later we went to get all the kids to play spotlight then my Hoha cousin Tyrin got a cut on his forehead cause it was too dark and he ran into a tree. but we had a fun day up at Pukenui and I enjoyed it.
