Ruapotaka mini Olympics

Last Friday at Ruapotaka school we put together a challenge based on the Olympics!

We all got put into teams and the group I was in was Greece with Quros, Ngakau, Jonalisi, Sapphire Tuialo and Henry. Most of the people in my group weren’t here including me so Henry was the leader. He was the leader because he was the fourth oldest in the team. I would have had a amazing day and would discover a great experience with all the sports but also the sports that we did were Long Jump, Javelin and Gumboot throw!

My Modeling Work

 Last Friday room 11 made some models out of  jovi modeling clay. First we had to smooth the clay and warm it up by using our hands.The way you smooth it is you roll it around in your palm of your hand so the heat will break it down. I had a lot of fun creating this and the thing I was made was a flower that was surrounded by a earth worm. ( It was REALLY FUN )!

The first inspiration was Migo who was a brief history player but then I found Vinicius.

Matariki is a name in Maori for a cluster of stars  known as the seven sisters. Originally the tradition  was to celebrate the time of life and death. It also is a sighting of the next new moon. Maori celebrated the tradition at different times but it usually started at dawn when the sun rose. The festival would then start.
