Blogging: Art

This is my art work. At art, we had to design our face like we have to take 10 photos of ourselves and send it to our art teacher, then we trace our face and then we choose our 7 photos. After we choose our 7 photos, we draw our 7 photos on our faces and then paint. I painted my face red because my favourite colour is red so I painted my face red. Then after I painted my face, I started painting the collar of my blouse and teeth white. Then I painted my eyes brown. I painted my hair and eyebrows black, then after I painted my hair and eyebrows, I painted my mouth light pink. Then I painted the background blue. I painted the tongan flag red, niuean flag yellow, white and red, nike white and blue, warriors blue, mate ma'a tonga, tongan flower and niuean flower purple. I also painted my earrings as well. This is my art work.

Blogging: High Ropes

For 2 days the yr 11's went to High Ropes at Mt Albert. On Wednesday, we had to arrive at school at 7:45am and wait in the auditorium till the bus arrive. When the bus arrived, 11PCu went to the bus. I sat next to Raewen in the bus. Then we arrived at Unitec, Mt Albert. We were put into groups. In my group I had Raewen, Paris, Sa'ane, Christy, April, Jasmine, Te Harangi, Mata and Fusi. Then we went to our instructors down the hill and across the river and we did some activities. Our instructor's name is Oni. My favourite part was the trust fall. It was fun.

On Thursday was the same routine in the same group, but our group was up the hill, while the others went down the hill and across the river. We had a different instructor. His name was Jay.  When I climbed up the pole, I felt like I was going to die because I felt my hands sweating and I thought I was going to fall. I nearly went to the top but then I needed to come down because I couldn't climb anymore, so I told the girls that I wanted to come down.

Blogging: Special Olympics and IEP Meeting

This month, Whare Manaki students went on a trip to Special Olympics at Mount Smart Stadium. When we got there we went to sit down on the chairs and put our school bags down. Maia, Raewen, Flora and I went to the changing rooms and got changed into our school shorts for our running and so we went back to our seats where our bags were and while we were waiting for Special Olympics to start Maia, Flora and I talk together and when it started I felt a little bit nervous.

Then it was time for the girls to run but first we did the 200m run and it was Raewen, Maia and Flora's turn to start running and then when it was my turn to run, I started running and I came 3rd place in the 200m run, We did the 100m run and I came 3rd place, then after that we did the 50m run and I came 2nd place. I was so proud of myself and my family were proud of me.
